Are you looking for an opportunity to serve your community? Are you considering a career in healthcare, social work or psychology? Compassus will provide you the training and support to explore career options while making a true difference in the lives of others!
Students will have an opportunity to learn about utilizing a holistic approach to patient care, collaborate with the treatment team, attend interdisciplinary meetings, grief and loss, gerontology, family systems and so much more! You will not only be able to shadow and observe staff, but actually have direct interactions with patients and families.
Hospice is about giving comfort and hope and improving quality of life during an individual's last months of life. If you have a heart full of compassion, we would love to speak with you about visiting some of our patients!
