Nurses in this position assess and manage patient needs at end-of-life stages, helping families receive holistic care that eases transitions and improves quality of life. Core duties include planning, implementing, and evaluating hospice nursing plans to support patients in home, facility, or acute settings. Admissions, follow-up visits, and check-ins ensure timely interventions that address physical and emotional aspects of advanced illness.

The premier model supports care wherever patients choose to call home, emphasizing above-and-beyond service through interdisciplinary teams.
