Who We Are

We are VITAS Healthcare, the nation’s leading end-of-life care provider since 1978.

Job Description

Salary Range: $41- $43/ Hour

Our hospice organization kickstarts careers in caring, promotes from within, and provides a nationally recognized best-in-class employee experience. Supported by industry-leading experts and a growing network of programs in 15+ states, VITAS empowers team members to grow toward their goals while transforming patients’ lives.

Our priority is to care:
For our patients, for each other, and for the future.

What You’ll Do

As a home care registered nurse (RN), you will ensure hospice patients are comfortable and forge compassionate, meaningful connections with the people in their lives.

This is important work that comes with responsibility. Patients and families trust VITAS nurses to guide them through the end-of-life journey, and maintaining that trust is our highest priority.

You will be a respected member of our team, both as a caregiver and as a hospice educator. You will be entrusted with making care decisions at the bedside, ensuring comfort for your patients.

You will help patients and their loved ones understand and embrace the palliative—rather than curative—nature of hospice and the benefits of comfort-focused end-of-life care.

WHERE YOU’LL WORK

Most of your time will be caring for hospice patients in their homes, whether private residences or assisted living/skilled nursing facilities. Typically, nurses make 4-6 visits daily.

Once a week, you’ll visit the local program office to collaborate with an interdisciplinary team, including social workers, physicians, chaplains, and nurses, to support patients and families holistically.

What’s Expected From You

You should have your RN license, at least two years of nursing experience, reliable transportation, and traits like Commitment, Compassion, and a Can-do Attitude.

You will keep patient welfare at the center of your work, dedicated to our mission:
Extending comfort and dignity at the end of life.
