Eden Valley Hospice is a forward-thinking, compassionate provider of specialist palliative and end-of-life care. We are currently offering an exciting opportunity for a Registered Nurse to join our dedicated team in our 10-bed inpatient unit based in Carlisle.
Our vision is to improve care for people in our communities who are dying or have conditions which will shorten their lives.
We pride ourselves on delivering high-quality, person-centred care through our inpatient unit, Living Well and Outreach services, patient and family support, and Jigsaw, our dedicated children’s hospice. Collaboration is at the heart of our approach, and we work closely with healthcare providers across the region.
About the Role
As a Registered Nurse, you will play a vital role in our multidisciplinary team, responsible for the assessment, planning, delivery and evaluation of holistic and evidence-based palliative care to patients and their families.
Thanks to our excellent staff-to-patient ratios, you will have the time to truly connect with those in your care, building supportive relationships with patients and their families.
You’ll be part of an environment that values reflection, continuous learning, and personal development. We provide regular clinical supervision and ongoing training opportunities to help you grow both professionally and personally.
What We Offer
- A dynamic, supportive, and creative working environment
- A genuine opportunity to make a meaningful impact
- Generous shift enhancements
- Free on-site parking
- Access to our Employee Assistance Programme
- For eligible applicants, continued membership of the NHS Pension Scheme
We understand that working for a charity may raise questions about stability. Whilst we can never be complacent about the scale of the fundraising challenge that we continually face, the success of our income generation efforts and our prudent approach to managing our resources will ensure that we remain financially secure.

We are looking for someone who can work a variety of 12-hour shifts on rotation across 7 days:
- Day Shift: 7.30am – 8.00pm
- Night Shift: 7.30pm – 8.00am
A commitment to developing your clinical skills is essential, and in return, you’ll find opportunities for career progression and pay progression.
