Do you ever get tired of being stuck inside four walls and just clocking in and clocking out every day? Well hospice nursing may be the change you are looking for! Hospice nursing provides a lot of autonomy and independence. You get to be out in the field going in and out of different facilities and homes. You have time to recharge in your car between visits. And most importantly, you get to make a difference to people who need it most...those who are facing a terminal illness and their loved ones.
