Some Nurses Are at Their Best When Patients Need Them Most.
There are nurses who thrive on speed, procedures, and the constant movement of a busy unit.
And then there are nurses who discover that the most meaningful part of their career is being the person who can walk into a difficult situation and make it feel more manageable.
The nurse who gets the pain under control.
Who recognizes a change before anyone else does.
Who explains what's happening in a way the family can understand.
Who brings calm into the room.
At Superior Hospice, we're looking for that nurse.
As a Weekend Hospice RN, you'll provide one-on-one skilled nursing care to patients and families throughout the Greater Twin Cities Metro Area.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
- $45-$50/hour.
- Mileage reimbursement.
- Every weekend or every other weekend options.
- One-on-one patient care.
- Significant clinical independence.
- Opportunity to develop advanced pain and symptom management skills.
- Support from an interdisciplinary hospice team.
- Part-time opportunity with potential to grow into full-time as our census expands.
- Meaningful work where your experience and presence matter.
Your Clinical Judgment Matters Here
Hospice nursing requires more than compassion.
It requires an excellent nurse.
You'll assess patients with complex medical conditions, recognize changes in status, manage symptoms, communicate with providers, educate caregivers, and determine when additional intervention is necessary.
You may be the only clinician physically standing in the patient's home at that moment.
Your ability to assess, think critically, communicate clearly, and remain calm matters tremendously.
And unlike environments where you're responsible for several competing patients at once, hospice gives you the opportunity to focus on the patient and family directly in front of you.
What You'll Do
- Provide routine and PRN hospice visits in homes, assisted living, and memory care communities.
- Perform comprehensive nursing assessments.
- Identify and respond to changes in patient condition.
- Provide pain management, symptom management, wound care, and comfort-focused interventions.
- Educate patients and caregivers about medications, symptoms, disease progression, and what to expect.
- Support families through end-of-life transitions.
- Collaborate with physicians, nurses, social workers, chaplains, hospice aides, and facility teams.
- Complete accurate and timely clinical documentation.
You May Already Have the Skills Hospice Needs
Hospice experience is preferred, but some of the strongest hospice nurses come from other clinical backgrounds.
We're interested in RNs with experience in:
- Hospice or Palliative Care.
- Oncology.
- ICU or Critical Care.
- Emergency Nursing.
- Home Health.
- Medical-Surgical Nursing.
- Long-Term Care.
- Skilled Nursing.
If you're confident in your assessments, comfortable working independently, and able to support families through complex situations, your experience may translate exceptionally well to hospice.
What We're Looking For
- Active Minnesota Registered Nurse (RN) license.
- Strong assessment and critical thinking skills.
- Confidence working independently in the field.
- Excellent patient and caregiver communication.
- Compassion balanced with strong clinical judgment.
- Reliable transportation.
- Willingness to travel throughout the Greater Twin Cities Metro Area.
Be the Nurse Who Changes How a Difficult Day Feels.
You may not be able to change a patient's diagnosis.
But you can change whether they're comfortable.
You can change whether their family understands what's happening.
You can change whether someone feels scared or supported.
And you can make sure that during one of life's most vulnerable moments, someone experienced, compassionate, and clinically strong shows up.
That's the impact of hospice nursing.
Military nursing experience is highly valued. We proudly welcome Veterans, Reservists, National Guard Members, and Active Duty Military Personnel to apply.
If that's the kind of nursing that means something to you, apply today or email Elena Ehrlich at [email protected] to start the conversation.
