What If You Could Take Care of the Patient, Not Just the Problem?
Nurses are trained to look at the whole person.
But in many healthcare environments, there simply isn't enough time.
Treat the immediate problem.
Complete the documentation.
Move to the next patient.
Repeat.
At Superior Hospice, the goal is different.
We're looking for an RN who wants to provide individualized nursing care when comfort, communication, and quality of life matter most.
You'll still assess.
You'll still make clinical decisions.
You'll still manage complex symptoms.
But you'll also have the opportunity to sit with a family, answer the question they've been afraid to ask, explain what's happening, and make sure a patient is comfortable before you leave.
That's hospice nursing.
Why Nurses Choose This Opportunity
- $90,000 - $130,000 per year.
- Mileage reimbursement.
- 7 Days On / 7 Days Off schedule.
- Seven consecutive days off following every work rotation.
- One-on-one patient care.
- Significant clinical autonomy.
- Opportunity to develop meaningful relationships with patients and families.
- Field-based nursing throughout the Greater Twin Cities Metro Area.
- Collaborative interdisciplinary support.
- Opportunity to specialize in pain management, symptom management, and end-of-life care.
- Join a growing hospice organization where your voice and experience matter.
Hospice Changes the Definition of a Good Outcome
In many areas of nursing, success means fixing the problem.
Hospice asks a different question.
What does this patient need to have the best possible day today?
Sometimes that's getting pain under control.
Sometimes it's managing shortness of breath or anxiety.
Sometimes it's helping a caregiver understand what they're seeing.
Sometimes it's coordinating medications or equipment before symptoms become more difficult.
And sometimes it's simply helping a family feel confident that their loved one is comfortable, respected, and cared for.
You'll use the same nursing knowledge you've spent your career developing, but you'll apply it toward a different goal.
Your Patients Are More Than an Assignment
During your rotation, you'll provide evening and overnight hospice nursing support to patients throughout the Greater Twin Cities Metro Area.
You'll care for patients in:
- Private homes.
- Assisted living communities.
- Memory care settings.
- Skilled nursing facilities.
- Other community-based environments.
Instead of caring for an entire unit at once, you'll have the opportunity to focus on the patient and family in front of you.
You'll assess what's happening clinically, determine what can improve the patient's comfort, educate caregivers, and coordinate additional support when needed.
What You'll Be Doing
- Provide skilled hospice nursing care during evening and overnight hours.
- Perform comprehensive assessments and respond to changes in patient condition.
- Manage pain, dyspnea, agitation, nausea, wounds, and other symptoms.
- Implement comfort-focused nursing interventions.
- Evaluate the effectiveness of medications and symptom-management strategies.
- Educate patients and caregivers regarding medications, symptoms, disease progression, and comfort measures.
- Help families understand what to expect as a patient's condition changes.
- Provide emotional support while maintaining strong clinical focus.
- Coordinate with physicians and other hospice professionals regarding changing patient needs.
- Collaborate with nurses, social workers, chaplains, hospice aides, and community healthcare partners.
- Complete accurate and timely clinical documentation.
- Advocate for each patient's comfort, dignity, and individual goals of care.
You Don't Have to Come From Hospice to Belong in Hospice
Some of the strongest hospice nurses started somewhere else.
Maybe you learned complex assessment in the ICU.
Maybe the ER taught you how to stay calm when everyone around you is overwhelmed.
Maybe oncology taught you how to communicate with patients and families facing difficult diagnoses.
Maybe Med Surg taught you how to recognize when something subtle is changing.
Maybe home health taught you how to make confident decisions when you're working independently.
Those experiences matter.
We're especially interested in nurses with backgrounds in:
- Hospice.
- Palliative Care.
- Oncology.
- ICU.
- Emergency Room.
- Critical Care.
- Home Health.
- Med Surg.
- Long-Term Care.
- Skilled Nursing.
- Hospital-Based Nursing.
What We're Looking For
- Active Minnesota Registered Nurse (RN) license.
- Strong assessment and clinical decision-making skills.
- Confidence working independently in the field.
- Excellent patient and caregiver education skills.
- Strong communication and interpersonal abilities.
- Ability to provide compassionate care during emotionally complex situations.
- Comfort caring for medically complex patients.
- Strong organizational and documentation skills.
- Hospice experience preferred but not required.
- Valid driver's license and reliable transportation.
- Willingness to travel throughout the Greater Twin Cities Metro Area.
The Best Hospice Nurses Don't Just Know What to Do. They Know How to Be Present.
Clinical skill matters tremendously in hospice.
So does something that's harder to teach.
Knowing when to explain.
Knowing when to listen.
Knowing how to walk into an anxious home and help everyone feel a little more confident about what happens next.
Knowing how to make a patient comfortable while helping their family understand that they're doing the right things.
Those moments aren't interruptions to the nursing care.
They are the nursing care.
At Superior Hospice, we're looking for nurses who want their clinical experience to mean something beyond completing another shift.
You'll have the opportunity to provide one-on-one care, practice with autonomy, support families through deeply meaningful moments, and protect the comfort and dignity of every patient you serve.
And with a 7 On / 7 Off schedule, you'll also have seven consecutive days to recharge before your next rotation.
If you're ready for nursing that feels personal, purposeful, and centered on what patients truly need, we'd love to hear from you.
