Hospice Nurse Interview Question:

Tell me what would you say to encourage nurses looking for a specialty to explore this one?

I would suggest having a year or two of hospice experience first. This is not necessarily an area of nursing for everyone and experience in hospice nursing can help you determine that. Also, because the hospice triage nurse often must operate independently, it is important to have a solid knowledge base about death, dying, symptom management and about grief and bereavement.
