Once a week, you’ll visit the local program office to meet with an interdisciplinary team, including social workers, physicians, chaplains, and nurses, who collaborate to provide holistic support for the patients and families we serve. What’s Expected From You Requirements: RN license, at least two years of nursing experience, and reliable transportation. Traits: Commitment, Compassion, 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. #J-18808-Ljbffr VITAS Healthcare
