Cleveland Clinic's Business Operations Center serves as a key hub for our Home Care and Hospice operations as well as many administrative and support teams. While many positions are based within the center, numerous home-visiting roles-including case managers, nurses, and therapists-travel throughout the Greater Cleveland and Akron/Canton areas to deliver exceptional care directly to patients in their homes.
Hospice helps patients and their families prepare physically, emotionally and spiritually for the end of life. Our focus is on providing comfort, not a cure, and on quality of life, not duration.
