We're looking for a compassionate, dependable Registered Nurse (RN) who wants more autonomy, meaningful patient relationships, and an alternative to the traditional hospital environment. This position is ideal for an RN who enjoys managing their own day, getting to know patients and families, and providing high-quality, comfort-focused care where patients feel most at home.

**Responsibilities**
As a Hospice RN, you will:

* Educate and support patients and families on disease progression, the dying process, and symptom management.

**A Better Alternative to the Hospital**
If you're an RN who's ready for a change from long hospital shifts, constant interruptions, and caring for multiple patients at once, hospice offers a different way to practice nursing. You'll spend meaningful one-on-one time with patients and families, use your clinical judgment independently, and help patients stay comfortable and supported at home through the end of life.
Whether you value family benefits and stability or prefer maximum cash compensation, we offer a compensation structure that gives experienced nurses more choice. Rotation shifts come with extra pay on top of either package.
