Job Description

WHAT YOU’LL DO

As a hospice social worker, you will provide emotional and logistical support to patients and their loved ones during an important and vulnerable time.

You will ensure VITAS patients reach the end of life with their affairs in order, honoring their wishes for finances, funeral arrangements, and more. Their loved ones will trust you to help them navigate the grieving process.

With this in mind, you will:

  • Perform psychosocial assessment of patients and families, working with your clinical teammates to create a comprehensive plan of care for each
  • Provide individual and family supportive counselling
  • Deliver psychotherapy if appropriately credentialed
  • Be proactive in delivering bereavement care to each patient’s families and loved ones after the patient’s passing
  • Refer patients and family members to community resources as needed
  • Maintain accurate and timely documentation

Working alongside your team, you will give your best each day in service of our core commitment: Delivering compassionate, personalized care with heartfelt empathy, honoring the wishes of each patient who entrusts VITAS with their end-of-life journey.

WHERE YOU’LL WORK

Each day is different for our social workers. You will spend most of your time caring for hospice patients wherever they call home, which may be a private residence or an assisted living/skilled nursing facility.

About once a week, you'll come to the office to meet with the rest of your interdisciplinary team: the RNs, physicians, chaplains, nurses and aides who work together to provide 360-degree support to the patients and families we serve.

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.
