What do Hospice Registered Nurses do?
A Hospice RN (Registered Nurse) provides palliative, or comfort-focused, end-of-life care for terminally ill patients and their families, prioritizing their physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
They manage symptoms, administer medications for comfort, educate patients and their families, and coordinate with other care team members, such as social workers and chaplains, to ensure a dignified and peaceful passing.
What they do
Symptom and Pain Management: This is a core function that focuses on relieving pain and other distressing symptoms to improve the patient’s quality of life.
Patient & Family Education: Providing information about the patient’s condition, disease progression, and available care options to both the patient and their family members.
Emotional and Spiritual Support: Offering comfort, guidance, and a supportive presence for patients and their loved ones during a difficult and emotional time.
Care Plan Management: Developing and implementing personalized care plans in collaboration with the interdisciplinary team, including physicians, social workers, and spiritual counselors.
Medication Administration: Administering prescribed medications to manage symptoms, ensuring they are given at the correct dosage and time.
Coordination of Care: Acting as a case manager to ensure all members of the hospice team are aligned and providing comprehensive, coordinated care.
Crisis Management: Helping the patient and family cope with sudden and intense crisis situations that can occur at the end of life.
Holistic Care: Addressing the patient’s complete needs, including their social, emotional, and spiritual well-being, as well as their medical symptoms.
What Hospice Care Focuses On
Patient Autonomy: Helping patients and families make informed decisions and allowing the patient to live as comfortably and independently as possible.
Comfort and Quality of Life: The primary goal is to provide comfort and maintain the highest possible quality of life for the patient as they approach the end of life.
