• Providing expert assessment, audits, and practical support to strengthen IPC practice and reduce infection risks
• Championing high standards, dignity, safety and quality across all care environments
• Building strong, respectful relationships with colleagues across health, social care, voluntary and private sectors
At Community Hospice, we believe in working together, learning together and caring together
. You’ll be supported with supervision, ongoing professional development and opportunities to shape system-wide improvements across SEL ICS.
