RN Hospice House

Provides hands on, comfort focused nursing care to patients receiving end of life services in an inpatient hospice setting. The role centers on assessing and managing symptoms (especially pain), administering medications, and ensuring patients remain as comfortable and dignified as possible. The nurse also updates care plans, documents all care provided, and works closely with the interdisciplinary hospice team (physicians, aides, social workers, chaplains, and volunteers). In addition, they support and educate families, helping them understand what to expect and offering emotional reassurance during a difficult time. Overall, the position combines clinical skill with compassionate, holistic care focused on quality of life rather than curative treatment.
