Houston Hospice is recruiting for 2 full-time Hospice Clinical Liaisons (RN)

At Houston Hospice, we believe that the heart of our organization are the people who work here. Since 1980, we have grown to become the oldest and largest independent nonprofit hospice in the Greater Houston area. Our mission is simple: to provide uncompromising, compassionate, end-of-life care to patients of all ages and their families.
Serving the 13 counties that surround the Houston area, we are committed to being the highest quality hospice provider wherever we serve.
Our approach is grounded in teamwork and trust by bringing together skilled healthcare professionals who all share a common purpose: to bring those on our service comfort, dignity, and peace. Whether care is provided in a family’s home, in a long-term care facility, or in our IPU in the Texas Medical Center, our team is dedicated to meeting patients where they are, both physically and emotionally. Our doctors and nurses are experts in easing pain and managing complex symptoms of life-limiting illnesses. We are seeking an experienced and relationship-driven Hospice Clinical Liaison to serve as a trusted clinical resource to hospitals and other healthcare partners.
