We are seeking a compassionate and dedicated Registered Nurse (RN) to join our hospice care team. In this role, you will provide holistic, patient-centered care to individuals with terminal illnesses, ensuring comfort, dignity, and quality of life during their end-of-life journey.

As a Hospice Nurse, you will assume responsibility and accountability for assessing, planning, implementing, and evaluating individualized care plans.

Your expertise and empathetic approach will support not only the patients but also their families, offering guidance and emotional support during this critical time.

What Does It Mean to Be Part of Our Hospice Team?

Home is where families gather, memories are cherished, and comfort is found. It is where moments of connection, peace, and dignity matter most.

At Intermountain Health, we have the privilege of caring for patients and families during one of life's most meaningful journeys. As a Hospice RN, you will provide compassionate, expert care that focuses on comfort, symptom management, and quality of life, allowing patients to spend their time in the setting they cherish most.

Working alongside an interdisciplinary team of physicians, social workers, chaplains, aides, and therapists, you will help guide patients and families through the end-of-life journey with empathy, skill, and clinical excellence.

Benefits (http://www.sclhealthsystem.org/careers/benefits/) are one of the ways we encourage health for you and your family. Our generous package includes medical, dental and vision coverage.
