Be the Steady Hand When Families Need It Most
Hospice care isn't just clinical — it's deeply human. At Transitions Hospice, our Social Workers are the emotional and practical lifeline for patients and families navigating one of life's most complex chapters. From grief support to community resources to advance care planning, you help families find footing when the ground feels uncertain.
We believe that psychosocial care is just as essential as medical care. If you're a licensed social worker who wants to work somewhere that actually lives that belief — this is your place.
What You'll Do
As a Transitions Hospice Licensed Social Worker, you'll carry a meaningful caseload and serve as a trusted advocate and counselor for patients and families throughout the hospice journey. Your responsibilities include:
Conducting thorough, compassionate initial psychosocial, spiritual, and pre-bereavement assessments for patients, families, and caregivers
Providing ongoing emotional support and counseling as a consistent presence throughout the care journey
Identifying and connecting families with community resources — including financial assistance — to meet practical and emotional needs
Guiding families through Advanced Directives with clarity and sensitivity
Assisting with facility placement for patients when appropriate
Maintaining accurate, timely clinical documentation at the patient's residence and in agency records
Actively contributing to interdisciplinary team and IDG meetings to shape holistic care plans
Participating in on-call duties on evenings and weekends as needed
Managing caseload while Assuring compliance with local, state, and federal laws, Medicare regulations, and established personnel policies and procedures
