Description

Hospice RN Case Manager

Location : Lexington, KY

Schedule : Monday-Friday 8am-5pm, with occasional on-call

As a BCN Hospice Team member, you will be a part of a team providing care and support to patients and their families who no longer receive treatments to cure their terminal illness, but instead choose care to improve their comfort and quality of life. Our service allows our team members to focus on one patient at a time providing care where the patient calls home. While this often is a house or apartment, we also provide care at nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and hospitals. If a patient’s care needs are too complicated for home care or require a higher level of attention from nurses and other experts, we can provide care at one of our Hospice Care Centers.

At BCN we are committed to a work setting that treats all team members with fairness, dignity, and respect. We offer our team members an opportunity to grow, to develop professionally, and to work in a team environment. You can help our team make a lasting difference for our families. Join #TeamBCN where your work matters, and your time is valued.

We Offer

• Competitive Pay
• Comprehensive benefits package
• Autonomy in your workday
• Flexible Schedules to support work / life balance (select positions)
• Mileage Reimbursement for work-related driving
• Up to 24 days of PTO accrued within the first year of employment
• 8 Paid Holidays (including day after Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve)
• Educational Assistance up to $3,000 per year & College Tuition Discounts
• Free Continuing Education Credits

About The Role

The Hospice RN Case Manager delivers compassionate and comprehensive health care services to Hospice patients in a home care setting, or wherever the patient calls home. Home care settings may consist of a private residence, skilled nursing facility, personal care home, and / or other interim living arrangements. The Hospice RN Case Manager’s goal for excellent patient care standards begins with active listening to create and implement a holistic plan of care based on the patient’s goals and preferences. The Hospice RN Case Manager serves as the patient advocate to support, guide, and coordinate care for patients, families, and caregivers as they navigate Hospice Care. The plan of care will include managing symptoms through pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic interventions for optimal comfort, functionality, and safety. Frequent monitoring and follow-up are required to evaluate the efficacy of treatments, plans of care, and to offer emotional support to both the patient and the caregiver. A Registered Nurse in this position will have strong communication skills, the competence to work autonomously, professionalism to work within an interdisciplinary team, and the ability to provide care with empathy. This position offers ongoing opportunity to make a significant and rewarding difference in patients’ lives during a challenging time.
