You will deliver personal care as needed for the patients and will need to have a kind and compassionate nature. This is a lovely and rewarding role requiring commitment to providing a high quality of care for our oncology and haematology patients.   You will get to know our patients and their relatives well and develop a good rapport with them to support their needs.
