Our organization is dedicated to providing high quality care and an inclusive environment to all of our patients and employees. Home hospice takes place in our patients home setting, so it is vital for us to consider each patient and their support system entirely as we are in their space and serving them in one of the most vulnerable times in their lives. Our care is made more rich by individualized care plans that consider the wholeness of the people we serve and how that affects their goals and guides collaborative solutions that each patient is comfortable with. Promotion of a diverse workforce of people who are able to connect with the populations we serve as people allows us to meet these goals. Each member of our interdisciplinary team provides unique experiences and backgrounds that strengthen our ability to serve our patients and their loved ones. To support our diverse workforce and patient population, we use inclusive language in our listings, documentation, and intake forms. We also complete cultural competency and LGBTQ+ care trainings upon hire and annually.

We are an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
