What Does a Hospice Case Manager Do?
Hospice care focuses on providing pain management and comfort for patients with terminal or chronic illnesses. A hospice case manager oversees the hospice services for these patients, working with the patient’s families and caregivers to determine the best care possible. Services may be provided in the patient’s home, at the hospital, or in a specialized hospice facility. Your job duties include meeting with the patient and their families to discuss the care plan, confirming insurance coverage and other payment options, and monitoring the condition of the patient and making adjustments in care as necessary. Qualifications for this career may include a nursing degree or a degree in social work and several years of experience working with terminally ill patients.
