Nurse Practitioner (CNP) - Hospice, PRN

Description

About the Role

As a Hospice Nurse Practitioner with Corus Health, you step into moments that require presence, steadiness, and compassion. In this role, you provide high-quality, patient-centered care that supports comfort, dignity, and clarity during vulnerable stages of life. You’ll work autonomously in the field while being supported by an interdisciplinary hospice team committed to collaboration, transparency, and the mission we share: to bring out the courage in others.

This role is ideal for an experienced hospice NP who thrives in dynamic clinical environments, values meaningful patient relationships, and brings both empathy and clinical expertise to every visit.

 Key Responsibilities

• Perform comprehensive assessments, manage symptoms, and respond to rapid changes in condition using hospice and palliative best practices.
   
• Complete required face-to-face hospice recertification visits and contribute to terminal prognosis documentation.
   
• Partner closely with physicians, nurses, social workers, and chaplains during IDG meetings to support coordinated care plans.
   
• Provide education on prognosis, medications, advance directives, and goals-of-care conversations with clarity and compassion.
   
• Document all clinical encounters accurately, timely, and in full compliance with CMS and hospice regulatory standards.
   
• Guide patients and families through end-of-life decision-making, offering emotional steadiness and support.
   
• Work autonomously in the field while maintaining open, timely communication with the clinical team.

Requirements

 What We’re Looking For

• Current Nurse Practitioner licensure in the state of practice and certification as FNP, AGPCNP, or equivalent.
   
• Prior hospice NP experience is required (minimum level necessary for independent field work).
   
• Strong clinical judgment with the ability to manage complex symptoms and evolving patient needs.
   
• Demonstrated ability to navigate difficult conversations with warmth, composure, and honesty.
   
• High-quality documentation skills and comfort working within regulatory requirements.
   
• Steady, empathetic presence — especially in emotionally intense situations.
   
• A team-oriented professional who values collaboration, transparency, and disciplined follow-through.
