What are the responsibilities and job description for the Weekend Registered Nurse - Home Health and Hospice position at Summit Home Health St. George?
Summit Home Health & Hospice
At Summit Home Health & Hospice, our reputation is built by actions.
We are a locally owned and operated agency serving Southern Utah, and we are looking for an exceptional RN Case Manager who wants to do meaningful work, operate with real ownership, and make a lasting impact in the lives of patients and families.
Summit was honored as the 2026 Best of Southern Utah Home Care and Hospice Agency, a reflection of the quality of care, trust, and commitment our team brings to patients and families every day. If you want to be part of a team known for excellence in the community it serves, this is that opportunity.
This is not a low-accountability nursing role. It is for a nurse who is clinically strong, deeply compassionate, highly organized, and able to think independently. If you take pride in doing the right thing for patients, communicating proactively, and following through at a high level, you may be a strong fit here.
Why This Role Matters
You will play a key role in guiding patients and families through some of the most important and vulnerable moments of their lives. You will help ensure they receive excellent care, clear communication, and strong clinical support in the home.
Because of our size and stage, this role currently supports both Home Health and Hospice. That means we are looking for a versatile nurse who can adapt well, manage complexity, and confidently care for patients across both service lines.
What You’ll Own
- Manage and coordinate patient care in the home across Home Health and Hospice
- Serve as a primary clinical point of contact for patients, families, providers, and the care team
- Complete assessments and support development, implementation, and oversight of individualized care plans
- Provide skilled nursing care, education, and support to patients and their families
- Document thoroughly and accurately in a timely manner

- Help respond to patient needs through on-call rotation
What Great Looks Like
The right nurse for this role:
- Builds trust quickly with patients and families
- Communicates clearly and proactively
- Stays organized and follows through
- Uses sound clinical judgment
- Handles both compassion and accountability well

Who Thrives Here
You’ll likely thrive at Summit if you:
- Want your work to matter
- Take ownership instead of waiting to be told what to do
- Value high standards, teamwork, and honest communication
- Are flexible and capable in a growing environment
- Care deeply about both the patient experience and clinical excellence
Who This Is Not For
This role is probably not a fit if you:
- Prefer a highly rigid or heavily layered environment
- Struggle with change, autonomy, or problem-solving
- Need constant supervision to stay on top of responsibilities
- Are looking for a role with minimal accountability or limited variety
