Job Description

Patient Care Manager, RN (Director of Nursing)– Hospice Care

Lead with heart and compliance. Inspire with purpose. Redefine what compassionate care looks like.

Who We Are:

We’re a hospice team on a mission—to make every moment matter. We believe end-of-life care should be filled with dignity, connection, and meaning. Our team blends clinical excellence with deep compassion, and we’re looking for a Nursing leader who can lead, inspire, and elevate both.

The Role:

This isn’t just a leadership job—it’s a chance to shape experiences at life’s most meaningful moments. As our Patient Care Administrator, you’ll guide a team of dedicated clinicians, champion quality care, and bring energy, empathy, and innovation to everything you do.

You’ll be the heartbeat of our clinical operations—supporting nurses, collaborating across disciplines, and ensuring every patient and family receives exceptional care.

What You’ll Do:

  • Lead, mentor, and inspire a team of hospice leaders, nurses and clinical staff
  • Oversee day-to-day clinical operations and ensure the highest standards of care
  • Foster a supportive, engaging, and mission-driven team culture
  • Partner with interdisciplinary teams to deliver holistic patient care
  • Ensure compliance with all hospice regulations and best practices
  • Monitor quality metrics and drive continuous improvement initiatives
  • Support staff development, education, and clinical excellence
  • Participate in strategic planning and organizational growth
  • Jump in when needed—because great leaders lead by example

What Makes You Amazing in This Role:

  • You lead with empathy but make decisions with confidence
  • You’re a natural mentor who loves helping others grow
  • You bring calm to chaos and clarity to complexity
  • You believe innovation and compassion can (and should) coexist
  • You understand that hospice is about living fully, even at the end

Qualifications:

  • Current Registered Nurse (RN) license in the state of practice
  • Bachelor’s degree in Nursing (BSN required; MSN preferred)
  • 2+ years of hospice or palliative care experience
  • 2+ years of leadership or management experience
  • Strong knowledge of hospice regulations and compliance standards
  • Exceptional communication, leadership, and organizational skills

Bonus Points If You:

  • Have experience building unity and belonging within an interdisciplinary team.
  • Love building team culture and boosting engagement
  • You're creative and love improving care delivery and staff support
  • Aren’t afraid to think differently and try new approaches

Why You’ll Love It Here:

  • A mission that truly matters—every single day
  • A collaborative, supportive leadership team
  • Freedom to innovate and make a real impact
  • Competitive salary + comprehensive benefits + bonus
  • A culture that values both excellence and humanity

Let’s Make a Difference—Together.

  • If you’re ready to lead with compassion, inspire a team, and help keep the why Hospice was created alive, let's share time.
