Description

Are you a compassionate and skilled APRN looking to make a meaningful impact in the lives of patients and families during their most critical time? We are seeking an experienced Advanced Practice Registered Nurse to join our dynamic Hospice team! In this vital role, you will provide expert nursing care and evaluate patients within the framework of our mission and philosophy of Hospice.

Working alongside the Interdisciplinary Hospice Team and Hospice Medical Director, you'll gather, document, and share clinical findings to assess hospice eligibility and patient status. You will perform essential face-to-face encounters for hospice patients at key intervals, ensuring they receive the best care possible throughout their journey. If you're passionate about providing compassionate, patient-centered care in a supportive team environment, we'd love to have you join us!

This position is working on a PRN basis. 

Key Responsibilities:

• Evaluate and manage hospice patients, providing nursing care and ensuring continuity of care.
• Collaborate with the interdisciplinary team and Hospice Medical Director to determine continued eligibility and patient status.
• Conduct face-to-face encounters for recertification and ongoing assessment, ensuring timely reviews every 60 days.

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. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, age, or veteran status. Accommodation is available upon request for candidates taking part in all aspects of the selection process.
