At Corus Hospice, you join a team shaped by five generations of care — where trust, collaboration, and courage guide the way we serve. As a Medical Social Worker, you help patients and families navigate some of life’s most vulnerable moments with steadiness, empathy, and clarity.

This role blends autonomy in the field with deep interdisciplinary teamwork. You will support patient comfort, emotional well-being, and safe transitions while helping families feel seen, understood, and grounded throughout the hospice journey.

Key Responsibilities

• Provide social work services under a physician’s plan of care, supporting patient and family emotional, social, and practical needs

• Connect patients and families with community resources, financial supports, and social services
  
• Participate in care planning, case conferences, and safe discharge or transition planning
  
• Document assessments, visits, interventions, and coordination in a timely and compliant manner
  
• Maintain relationships with community organizations to support patient needs
  
• Uphold Medicare CoPs, state regulations, and professional social work standards

What We’re Looking For

• Master’s degree in Social Work (MSW) from a CSWE-accredited program
  
• One year of social work experience (healthcare preferred; hospice experience not required)
  
• Strong communication and relationship-building skills
  
• Deep empathy and a steady presence in emotionally intense situations
  
• Skill in navigating complex family dynamics with calm, clarity, and respect
  
• Knowledge of community resources and psychosocial assessment
  
• Valid driver’s license, reliable transportation, and required auto insurance

Why Join Us

At Corus Hospice, you’re not just joining a team — you’re joining a mission: to bring out the courage in others.
You will be supported by leaders who are present, communicative, and committed to your growth and well-being.

What makes this role especially meaningful:

• Flexible scheduling with autonomy to manage your day
  
• Supportive leadership that invests in clarity, teaching, and coaching
  
• Opportunities for professional growth and expanded responsibilities
  
• A culture grounded in CareM’s values: Trust, Integrity, Teaching, Collaboration, Transparency, Innovation, and Discipline
  
• A team that works together with curiosity and compassion — not turf or hierarchy
  

If you thrive in emotionally significant work, remain steady when families need it most, and find purpose in guiding others through the hardest chapters of life, you will belong here.
