What are the responsibilities and job description for the Nurse Practitioner - Palliative Care position at Crossroads Hospice & Palliative Care?
At Crossroads Hospice & Palliative Care, we believe that care is most powerful when it’s built on trust, presence, and connection. As we breathe new life into our palliative care program, Nurse Practitioners are at the center—building lasting relationships that carry patients and families from early conversations through life’s most sacred transitions. This work is rooted in compassion and designed to meet people where they are, long before hospice begins.
As part of a collaborative, interdisciplinary team, you’ll be supported in the kind of care you went into healthcare to provide. With time to listen, space to guide, and the ability to stay present across a patient’s journey, you’ll help families navigate the emotional complexity of serious illness. You’ll hold the paradox between planning and hoping—bringing clarity, comfort, and connection to moments that matter most.
