Prior to going into hospice, I simply browsed this category looking for topics that I wanted more information about on that particular day. I spent many days reading about this field of nursing because I was told, "You will know within six weeks of hospice nursing whether it is for you or not." Part of that is due to the emotional gains and drains which I find makes me grow as a person. I have been in hospice for over five years and cannot imagine myself anywhere else.

Good luck with your decision.

I saw Hospice first hand thru my husbands illness .I have friends who are recently relatively new to Hospice both were ED nurse as I was but after 15 years in Ed I needed a change so after my husband passed I became a Hospice Case Manager .I have only been doing this 9 weeks and I already know that it was the correct choice for me .I believe it is what I am meant to do .

Another resource to consider is the Hospice and Palliative Nurses Association https://advancingexpertcare.org. Good luck and welcome to the hospice world!
