About This Role
Hospice chaplaincy is not about having the right words. It’s about showing up , listening deeply , and being present when life feels most fragile. At Superior Hospice, our Chaplain is a trusted companion for patients and families navigating fear, grief, meaning, faith, doubt, and legacy.

We are seeking a Chaplain who understands that end-of-life care is sacred work and who is comfortable supporting individuals from all spiritual, religious, and cultural backgrounds . This role is ideal for someone who finds purpose in quiet moments, honest conversations, and steady presence.

Why Join Superior Hospice

• Be part of a mission-driven hospice team that truly values spiritual care

• Serve patients and families in moments that truly matter
• Join a growing hospice organization built on heart, humility, and teamwork

What You’ll Do

• Provide spiritual and emotional support to patients facing end-of-life
• Offer prayer, reflection, ritual, or conversation aligned with patient wishes
• Support families through anticipatory grief, loss, and transition
• Honor and respect diverse belief systems and cultural traditions
• Participate in interdisciplinary team meetings , contributing spiritual insight
• Facilitate meaningful conversations around life review, legacy, forgiveness, and closure
• Serve as a calming presence during moments of uncertainty or distress

Who We’re Hoping to Meet

• Chaplain or spiritual care provider with experience in hospice, palliative care, oncology, or end-of-life settings
• Comfortable supporting patients regardless of faith, belief, or spiritual identity
• Strong listener with emotional maturity and compassion
• Grounded, reliable, and able to navigate emotionally complex situations
• Passionate about hospice and the role of spiritual care in holistic medicine

Why This Role Feels Different

• Spiritual care is treated as essential , not optional

• A team that supports one another with empathy and respect
• Opportunity to grow with a hospice program that is expanding thoughtfully
