Breast Care Clinical Nurse Specialist

You will be a key worker, instrumental in influencing and advocating for the patient and those important to them. You will provide essential cross department liaison and develop advanced communication skills to improve the patient's journey and experience from screening through to palliation. Providing expert clinical knowledge and strong role modelling is an essential component of the role. In support of the wider Trust you will provide specialist breast cancer education to clinical staff.

You will be working autonomously running nurse led endocrine clinics as well as supporting patients though all aspects of their care. Advanced physical assessment skills and a track record of nurse led clinic skills are desirable; however, we will be committed to addressing your training needs and professional development and offer support and leadership.

As part of the specialist nursing team you will develop the service and implement national cancer guidance.
