Job description

WHO WE ARE

We are a nurse-founded hospice organization and a pioneer in end-of-life care since 1978. As caregivers, we advocate for our patients and their families, providing compassionate care at the bedside. We take care of each other, and we are proud to make a difference in the lives of those we serve.

We are VITAS.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

As an LPN, you will play a vital role in providing comfort and support to hospice patients, ensuring they experience dignity and peace during their final journey. This position requires compassion, commitment, and a deep understanding of the importance of palliative care. You will be responsible for providing bedside care while fostering meaningful connections with both patients and their families.

You will be a valued member of our team, not only as a caregiver but also as an educator to patients and families about hospice care. With a focus on comfort and symptom management, you will work autonomously, making critical decisions at the bedside. Your role will emphasize the importance of hospice care’s palliative nature, helping families embrace comfort-focused end-of-life care.

WHERE YOU’LL WORK

Your work will vary daily as you provide care to patients in their homes, assisted living facilities, nursing homes, hospitals, or medical centers. Your schedule will adapt to patient needs, and on average, you will make 4 to 6 visits per shift.

You will also attend regular interdisciplinary team meetings (once a week), collaborating with physicians, social workers, chaplains, and other healthcare professionals to provide holistic care to both patients and their families.

  • Schedule: Days, Nights, Weekends
  • Mileage Reimbursement: Yes, $0.67 per mile.
  • Benefits: Medical, Dental, Vision, 401K, HSA, FSA, Tuition Reimbursement, PTO.

WHAT’S EXPECTED FROM YOU

As a VITAS LPN, you will provide the compassionate, high-quality care that our patients and families deserve. In addition to holding a current LPN license, you will demonstrate empathy, reliability, and dedication to enhancing the quality of life for patients at the end of their journey. You will be dedicated to our mission of delivering comfort and dignity to patients and their families during one of life’s most challenging times.

QUALIFICATIONS FOR LPN

  • Currently licensed to practice as an LPN in the state where the VITAS program operates.
  • Minimum of two years of nursing experience in hospice, home health, community health, or hospital settings.
  • Equivalent experience or licensure may be considered.

JOB REQUIREMENTS

  • Must have reliable transportation with adequate insurance coverage for the driver and passengers.
  • Must have a telephone (cellular or landline) available for communication.
