Marie Curie Cancer Care provides free specialist support and care for cancer patients and their families. We aim to give patients the best possible quality of life, meeting all their medical, spiritual and social needs, while also providing their families with all the emotional support they need.
Marie Curie’s brand new Hospice for the West Midlands opened in January 2013 replacing our old building which is no longer fit for purpose. The new Marie Curie Hospice now supports hundreds more patients and their loved ones with high quality care in a comfortable environment.
The Children and Young People’s Counsellor will join an established multi-disciplinary team at the hospice and work as part of the Patient and Family Support Team. You must be able to assess the need for pre and post bereavement intervention and be able to provide specialist counselling to patients, carers, significant others, children and young people using individual, group and family techniques whilst being sensitive to the particular needs of the terminally ill and patients with life threatening illness.
