Hospice After Hours Registered Nurse
Full-Time: After-Hours 7/7 - Mon-Thur 5pm-8:30am & Fri 5pm-Mon 8:30am
Coverage Area: Oakland & Macomb Counties

Our on-call nurses are supported by IntellaTriage, a specialized hospice RN triage service. Instead of fielding every after-hours call, experienced hospice nurses answer, assess, educate, and resolve many patient and family needs. When your clinical expertise or an in-person visit is needed, you'll receive a thorough report so you can focus on providing exceptional patient care—not sorting through unnecessary phone calls.

We invest in technology and clinical support that allows our nurses to spend less time managing calls and more time delivering compassionate, high-quality hospice care.
