About The Position

The Hospice RN Case Manager delivers compassionate, comprehensive health care to hospice patients in a home care setting or wherever the patient calls home. Care settings may include private residences, skilled nursing facilities, personal care homes, and other interim living arrangements. The role centers on listening to patients and creating and implementing holistic plans of care based on their goals and preferences. The Hospice RN Case Manager advocates for patients and supports, guides, and coordinates care for patients, families, and caregivers as they navigate hospice care. Plans of care include managing symptoms through pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic interventions to promote comfort, functionality, and safety.
