Without a physical clinic or “Hospice House,” Hospice of the Northwest clinicians travel to the patient’s home to provide high-quality, compassionate hospice care where they live. This means that most clinical positions with Hospice of the Northwest include regional travel, thought the Pacific Northwest.
