Sept 013 - Nurses Needed


Would you like to make a difference to our patients and their families at one of the most important times of their lives?

Madrugada provides support to people with life limiting illness, by enabling them to gain optimum benefit from their treatment, by strengthening their general health and their emotional well-being, thereby maximising quality of life.

We are looking for qualified nurses to join our team of Bank Nurses to augment the existing team and to extend our service into the eastern Algarve.

You must be Registered with the Ordem dos Enfermeiros with a particular interest in providing the best possible care to patients within a palliative care setting. Community Nursing experience is essential as you will need to deal with relatives and patients in their home, liaising with the Madrugada team at a distance.

We welcome applicants who have experience in palliative care, oncology, or those who have worked in a variety of clinical areas. As part of a multi professional team you will be involved in the holistic assessment of patients and their carers enabling patients to maximise their potential and promote self- management. Multi-lingual skills are always an advantage.

You will need to have a full, clean, driving license with access to a car.

To apply, please send your C.V. and covering letter to:-
