Job Description

WHO WE ARE

We are VITAS Healthcare, the nation’s leading end-of-life care provider since 1978.

Our hospice organization kickstarts careers in caring, promotes from within and provides a nationally recognized best-in-class employee experience.

Backed by industry-leading experts and an expanding network of programs in 15+ states, VITAS empowers team members to grow toward their goals while transforming patients’ lives.

VITAS team members help patients navigate the end of life with dignity, comfort and peace — ensuring every moment matters.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

As a hospice home care & inpatient physician, you will partner with clinical teammates to provide VITAS patients and families with high-quality care at the most challenging point in life.

Through in-person visits and telehealth appointments, you will use your compassion, communication skills and deep expertise to build meaningful relationships with your patients and the people who love them.

You will see the person behind each prognosis and create care plans centered around the patient’s wishes, needs and beliefs, often working in concert with the patient’s primary care physician.

With a strong sense of commitment, you will advocate for your patients, discussing goals for their care while addressing their hopes and fears.

WHERE YOU’LL WORK

You will spend most of your time caring for hospice patients who have been admitted to an inpatient unit (IPU) in a hospital, nursing facility or hospice house.

Each IPU provides round-the-clock care for patients whose symptoms cannot be managed effectively in a home setting.

Once a week, you’ll attend a formal meeting to discuss cases with members of your interdisciplinary team, including social workers, chaplains, and nurses. All these roles collaborate to provide holistic support for the patients and families we serve.

In addition to being fellowship trained and board-certified or board-eligible in hospice and palliative medicine, internal medicine, family practice, or a related specialty, you should be familiar with the principles of hospice and registered with the DEA.

You’ll also have the traits that make the VITAS Difference: Commitment, Compassion, and a Can-do Attitude.

You will keep patient welfare at the center of everything you do, giving your best each day in service of our core commitment: Extending comfort and dignity to all people at the end of their life’s journey.

EDUCATION

  • Graduate of an accredited school of medicine or osteopathy with current license to practice in the state where the hospice program in located.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
