Hospice Chaplain

The founders of Day City Hospice took the lessons learned from years of experience in corporate America to create a patient-centered hospice that maximizes resources at bedside while being operated locally. Our passion is to provide patients and their families with hospice care that is rooted in the communities we serve. When end-of-life care is necessary, patients and their families are in their most vulnerable time. Our Ohio-based management team, through our local clinicians, can respond to the needs of our patients in a timely and appropriate manner because we are local.We are also passionate about providing our employees the right tools to do their jobs effectively and provide the best hospice care in the Dayton, OH area. We don’t require high caseloads or unmanageable quotas, which gives our team more time with each of their patients. Our top priority is our patients and the people serving them.Schedule: Monday-Friday 8a-5p with occasional on call rotationWhat We offer:Great culture and team atmosphereComprehensive benefits (medical, dental, vision, life/AD&D, disability)401(k) retirement plan with a generous company matchGenerous time off accrualsPaid holidaysMileage reimbursementTuition ReimbursementEmployee Referral Program Merit IncreasesEmployee Discount ProgramsWhat You’ll Do:Performs spiritual bereavement assessments of patients and families/caregivers in the hospice program in a timely manner and ensure that identified needs are addressed in the patient’s plan of careProvides direct spiritual care and bereavement counseling to patients and families/caregiversDemonstrates exceptional service to patients, families, referral sources, co-workers, and other customers.
