Nurses must have reliable transportation to visit patients in their homes. Regular floating may be required between departments and facilities as needed. The position includes being on-call for one night shift every other week. There is flexibility in start and end times if needed. Patients often require support in pain management and end-of-life care. The role involves patient and family education and emotional support during the dying process.
