This is an experienced‑provider track: 2+ years of palliative, hospice, or other serious‑illness care is required. Why You Will Want This Role A structured ramp into palliative care: pair with experienced specialists and grow through mentorship, clinical backup, and data‑guided coaching.

Provide palliative care consultations and follow‑up visits across skilled nursing settings, including short‑stay subacute/rehab patients with recent hospitalizations, high symptom burden, or complex goals‑of‑care needs, as well as ongoing management of long‑term care residents. Deliver palliative assessments and follow‑up visits in SNFs and community settings. Manage complex symptoms for patients with advanced illness and chronic disease. Lead goals‑of‑care and advance care planning conversations with patients and families, coordinating with partner home health and/or hospice agencies when appropriate. Partner with the interdisciplinary team and facility staff, primary care, and hospice. Support transition planning across the SNF stay – from admission after hospitalization through discharge home, return to long‑term care, rehospitalization decisions, hospice transition, or other next‑site‑of‑care planning. Complete timely documentation aligned with clinical, billing, and quality standards. Travel locally within Central NJ, with mileage reimbursement and clinical/EMR support provided.
