Social Worker- PRN
2 weeks ago
As a BCN Hospice Team member, you will be a part of a team providing care and support to patients and their families who no longer receive treatments to cure their terminal illness but instead choose care to improve their comfort and quality of life. Our service allows our team members to focus on one patient at a time providing care where the patient calls home. While this often is a house or apartment, we also provide care at nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and hospitals. If a patient's care needs are too complicated for home care or require a higher level of attention from nurses and other experts, we can provide care at one of our Hospice Care Centers.
Schedule: PRN (as needed)
Position Summary:
An employee in this position provides direct casework and counseling services to the patient/family unit wherever they may be within the hospice program of care. The Social Worker will provide an assessment of psychosocial problems; define treatment goals and work to alleviate such problems.

Plans and coordinates patient care with the primary nurse under the direction of the Counseling Supervisor, Executive Director, and/or Regional Counseling Supervisor.
