You are often the first clinical presence they encounter — the person who listens carefully, assesses thoughtfully, and helps families take the next step with clarity and compassion.
• This role blends strong clinical judgment with deep human connection. You’ll guide patients and families through hospice eligibility and enrollment, ensuring each transition is grounded in dignity, honesty, and respect. At Corus, we believe this work requires courage — and we’re committed to supporting the nurses who bring that courage forward every day.

• Develop and initiate individualized plans of care in collaboration with the interdisciplinary team and attending physicians
• Coordinate timely admissions by completing accurate documentation and communicating across providers and settings
• Serve as a clinical liaison with referral sources, facilities, physicians, and internal hospice team members
• Advocate for patient goals, preferences, and comfort throughout the admission process

• Requirements
• What We’re Looking For
• Current, unencumbered RN license in New Mexico
• Prior hospice experience required
