Hospice Chaplain PRN

Queen City Hospice is proud to be Ohio-made. Every decision we make about hospice care is made with patients and families in mind. Our team is rooted in the communities we serve and are dedicated to delivering the highest quality of care for our fellow Central Ohio residents.

We believe that the best definition of care is determined by the wishes and needs of patients and their families. We are committed to supporting our patients to remain wherever they call home throughout their entire journey. To accomplish this, we strive to support not only our patients but the team that serves them. Our team carries low patient caseloads and are never on call. We provide a positive work experience for our employees by empowering our staff and giving them rewarding careers with manageable workloads, support, and flexibility. Come join the fastest-growing hospice care in the Midwest.
