Full job description
Why Hospice? Why VITAS?
Have you ever considered hospice as a clinical specialty—one that blends clinical expertise with deep human connection?
Just like cardiology or pediatrics, hospice is a specialty rooted in skill, compassion, and purpose. At VITAS, we’re redefining what’s possible in end-of-life care—one patient, one family at a time.
Rediscover the Heart of Nursing
You became a nurse to make a meaningful difference—to care, to educate, and to advocate during life’s most vulnerable moments. If the hospital’s fast-paced environment has left you feeling burned out or disconnected from your purpose, VITAS offers a path back to what matters most.
As a VITAS Hospice Admissions Nurse, you’ll be the compassionate bridge between hospital or community care and the comfort of hospice. You’ll guide patients and families through one of life’s most important transitions with clarity, empathy, and confidence.
This isn’t just a job—it’s a calling.
What You’ll Do
Conduct comprehensive clinical assessments to determine hospice eligibility
Educate patients and families about hospice services and Medicare benefits
Collaborate with physicians, case managers, and interdisciplinary teams
Provide emotional support and clinical guidance during the decision-making process
Initiate and complete the admission process, including documentation and coordination
What We’re Looking For
Registered Nurse (RN) with a valid state license
Minimum 2 years of nursing experience (hospice, palliative, ER, ICU, home health or case management preferred)
Strong clinical assessment and critical thinking skills
Compassionate communicator with excellent interpersonal skills
Active listener who builds trust and rapport
Confident in guiding others through uncertainty, addressing concerns with empathy
Reliable professional with strong follow-through and autonomy
Patient-centered advocate committed to dignity and comfort
Why You’ll Stay
Mission-Driven Work
Feel deeply connected to the heart of nursing by helping patients and families understand why hospice is the right care at the right time.
A Balanced Pace, A Powerful Impact
Make a meaningful difference without the burnout of traditional bedside care. Your time and talent are respected here.
Supportive Leadership & Collaborative Culture
Work in an environment where your clinical voice is heard, your expertise is valued, and your impact is recognized.
Opportunities for Growth
VITAS supports your professional development with ongoing learning and career advancement opportunities.
