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 hospice social worker, you will provide emotional and logistical support to patients and their loved ones during an important and vulnerable time. You will ensure VITAS patients reach the end of life with their affairs in order, honoring their wishes for finances, funeral arrangements, and more. Their loved ones will trust you to help them navigate the grieving process.
Whether you’re granting an end-of-life wish or simply listening to a patient’s stories at their bedside, your actions—large and small—will make a meaningful difference in the lives of patients and their families.
WHERE YOU’LL WORK
Each day is different for our social workers. You will spend most of your time caring for hospice patients wherever they call home, which may be a private residence or an assisted living/skilled nursing facility.
About once a week, you'll come to the office to meet with the rest of your interdisciplinary team: the RNs, physicians, chaplains, and fellow nurses who work together to provide 360-degree support to the patients and families we serve.
WHAT’S EXPECTED FROM YOU
VITAS social workers honor the trust of our patients and center others in their work. In addition to having your social work license, reliable transportation, and at least one year of social work experience in a health care setting, you'll approach your work with the traits that make the VITAS Difference: Commitment, Compassion, and a Can-do Attitude.
You will keep patient welfare at the center of everything you do, giving your best each day in service of our core commitment: Extending comfort and dignity to all people at the end of their life’s journey.
