Do hospice nurse visit the patient who passed away at night?

[50kn]

i used to work night shift at a few skilled nursing facilities. some of the patients were hospice patients. when the hospice patients passed away i called their physician, families and hospice nurses to let them know. i have never seen hospice nurses came to see the patient when the patient passed away at the midnight or like between 2-5 am. or at least i don't remember if they came, or i might not have noticed when they came. do hospice nurses document the fact (the patient passed away) and discharge the patient after they received the phone call but not normally visit the patient? or depends on the situation, they visit the patient as a night time on-call? i just wonder.

I have worked for two hospice companies in the past ten years. Both companies require that a nurse attend each and every death.
