Make a Difference After Hours—Without Spending Every Night at a Facility!

Looking for a nursing opportunity that offers independence, flexibility, and meaningful work?

At Mountain Valley Hospice, our after-hours nurses provide compassionate care and reassurance to patients and families when they need it most. Unlike traditional night shift positions, our after-hours RNs are primarily on-call from home, responding to patient needs and making visits when necessary.

You'll have the independence to work from home between patient care needs while remaining available to provide hands-on nursing care throughout your assigned service area.

Available Schedules

• Friday–Sunday: 4 PM–8 AM

Why You'll Love This Opportunity

• Home-Based On-Call: Spend time at home between patient care needs instead of reporting to a facility for your entire shift.
• Independence & Autonomy: Use your nursing experience and clinical judgment to assess patient needs and provide compassionate care.
• Meaningful Patient Connections: Help patients remain comfortable at home while providing reassurance and support to their families.
• Schedule Options: Choose from weekday, weekend, or rotating night schedules.
• Purpose-Driven Nursing: Be there when your skills, compassion, and presence can make all the difference.

What You'll Do

• Respond to after-hours patient and family calls.
• Assess patient needs and provide nursing guidance and support.
• Make in-home patient visits when clinical needs require hands-on care.
• Collaborate with the hospice care team to ensure continuity of care.
• Provide comfort, symptom management, and compassionate support to patients and families.

What We're Looking For

• Current RN license.

• Ability to remain within the assigned service area during scheduled on-call hours and travel to patients' homes when needed.

Sometimes the greatest comfort a family can receive is knowing a compassionate, experienced nurse is just a phone call away.

At Mountain Valley Hospice, you'll be that nurse.
