Soluna Recruitment, The Recruitment Prescription for a Stronger UK Palliative Workforce

 



In palliative care, the prescription for excellence is more than medication, treatment plans, or clinical protocols. It’s about building a workforce capable of delivering whole-person care, addressing the complex needs of patients, and ensuring continuity of care across every setting — from hospital wards to hospice gardens. In today’s climate, where services face rising symptom burden, increasing demand, and tighter budgets, the right staffing strategy can be as critical as the care plans themselves.

At Soluna Recruitment, we believe that a strong palliative workforce begins with precision recruitment. Just as a clinician carefully assesses symptoms before prescribing treatment, we evaluate the exact needs of each care provider before matching them with exceptional talent. Our process ensures every placement enhances care coordination, strengthens integrated care models, and supports the collaborative work of an interdisciplinary team.

We understand that clinical leadership is the stabilising force in a palliative care service. That’s why we prioritise sourcing professionals who not only have the technical expertise but also the therapeutic presence to guide teams, engage in shared decision-making, and deliver ethical care under pressure. From consultants in palliative medicine to clinical nurse specialists, our candidates are chosen for their ability to combine evidence-based practice with genuine compassion.

For employers, our recruitment prescription involves three essential ingredients: a clear understanding of your service model, access to a deep pool of clinically skilled candidates, and a commitment to long-term staffing stability. This approach minimises turnover, preserves continuity of care, and builds trust with patients and families during some of life’s most challenging moments.

For clinicians, our role is to connect you with opportunities that allow your skills to shine and your impact to grow. Whether you specialise in symptom management, thrive in complex needs management, or excel in advance care planning, we find roles that align with your expertise and career goals. We believe the right placement can be as transformative for the professional as it is for the service they join.

Palliative care is a field where people, not just policies, shape outcomes. By treating recruitment with the same care and precision as clinical practice, we can strengthen the UK’s palliative workforce — one placement at a time.
