💙 Now Hiring: Admissions RN 💙

For many families, calling hospice is one of the hardest phone calls they'll ever make.

They're overwhelmed. Unsure what to expect. Often trying to make decisions during one of the most difficult seasons of their lives.

As an Admissions RN, you have the opportunity to change that experience.

You'll be the first face, the first conversation, and the first source of reassurance. You'll help patients and families understand their options, answer their questions, and provide the sense of relief that comes from knowing they're not alone.

It's work that combines clinical expertise with compassionate presence, and it's often remembered by families long after that first visit.

Position Details:
✅ Full-Time
✅ 12-Hour Shifts (Thursday, Friday & Saturday)
✅ Sign-On Bonus Available

If you're a nurse who values meaningful connections, autonomy, and the opportunity to make an immediate difference, we'd love to hear from you.

Apply today and help families take the next step with confidence, comfort, and support.

It's national Grief Awareness Day.

Grief affects all of us. It is a universal human experience, yet it can often feel isolating. Today, we invite our community to create space for conversations about loss, remembrance, and healing.

A simple "I'm thinking of you" or "Tell me about your loved one" can remind someone they do not have to grieve alone.

Together, we can foster understanding, compassion, and support for all who are grieving.

If you are grieving, know that your feelings are valid and support is available.
The Bereavement Team at Emmanuel Hospice is honored to walk alongside individuals and families as they navigate grief and healing.

We are so proud of longtime volunteer, Bruce Koop, for being named FOX 17's Person of the Month. When he was informed that he had been selected, he said "I'd like to donate it back to Emmanuel Hospice"

That's just the type of person Bruce is. Endlessly thinking of others, and joyfully giving of his time and attention where it can make a lasting impact. Not only for patients, but for their families as well in giving them peace of mind that their loved one isn't alone.

Hospice was started by volunteers who knew there had to be a better way. Emmanuel Hospice, and volunteers like Bruce, embody the ideal that hospice is truly More About Living.

There is so much that we can give simply by being present. To learn more about becoming a volunteer, visit our website at EmmanuelHospice.org or email Holly: [email protected]

Thank you, Bruce.

🐾 Happy National Dog Day! 🐾

Today, we’re celebrating the unconditional love and comfort dogs bring into our lives and the incredible difference they can make for others.

At Emmanuel Hospice, our Pet Visitor Program gives companion animals the opportunity to bring comfort and joy to hospice patients and their families. ❤️

It’s amazing what a gentle nudge, a wagging tail or simply having a beloved dog nearby can mean during such an important season of life.

Our August free resource for the community is here! This month, we’re sharing a helpful article about advanced COPD and how hospice can provide comfort, support, and an added layer of care.

The article features insights from the Emmanuel Hospice team, along with valuable guidance from our friends at the American Lung Association. It’s a helpful resource for people living with COPD, caregivers, and anyone looking to better understand the support available as the disease progresses.

Massage therapy offers comfort that goes beyond medication.

At Emmanuel Hospice, it's one of the complementary therapies we provide to ease pain, calm the body, and restore a sense of peace to those in our care.

A gentle touch can ease tension. A quiet session can offer stillness. A skilled hand can bring real relief.

It's one small part of caring for the whole person, body and spirit.
