Time to listen. Time to understand. Time to care.

Could your next clinical challenge be one where you have the time to truly care? At North Devon Hospice, we believe everyone has a story - and the ending matters. We’re looking for Bank Specialty Doctors to join our small, expert medical team providing specialist palliative care across North Devon.

This is an opportunity to:
• Make a real difference to patients and families at an important time in their lives
• Care for people with cancer and non-cancer life-limiting conditions
• Work within a supportive, experienced multidisciplinary team
• Develop your skills and experience in palliative medicine
• Complement your existing GP, hospital or portfolio career
• Enjoy the time and space to provide person-centred, meaningful care

You’ll provide medical cover for our 7-bed inpatient unit, support our community teams and contribute to our 24/7 first-on-call service. You’ll have access to 24hr second on-call Palliative Medicine Consultant support. Full induction and shadowing opportunities are provided.

Flexible Bank working - sessions include:
• Weekdays: 9am-1pm or 1pm-5pm
• Weekday nights on call: 5pm-9am
• Weekends on call: Friday 5pm-Monday 9am

Ideal for experienced doctors with a background in General Practice, general medicine or another relevant specialty who are looking for flexible work alongside their existing commitments.

If you're looking for clinically rewarding work where your experience can make a genuine difference, we'd love to hear from you. For an informal discussion, please contact Cate Oliver, Director of People and OD, on [phone removed].
