About This Role
You'll provide direct patient care in hospice settings, working with patients and families during end-of-life transitions. Your days involve clinical assessments, medication management, symptom control, and emotional support—both for patients and their loved ones. This role combines hands-on nursing with care coordination, requiring strong communication skills and the ability to work independently while collaborating with a larger healthcare team. You'll split time between patients' homes and facility-based settings in the Bergman area. This position suits nurses who find meaning in palliative care, handle sensitive situations with empathy, and want to make a meaningful impact during vulnerable times. An LVN license and genuine commitment to hospice philosophy are essential.

Nursing Jobs in Bergman, CA
Bergman is a working healthcare town: Cedars-Sinai, Kaiser Permanente, UCSF Health, Stanford, and Sutter Health drive consistent demand year-round. Most nursing openings around Bergman, California fall into three buckets — staff hospital roles, per diem and PRN shifts, and travel/agency assignments tied to ICU, ER, labor & delivery, and travel nurse contracts.
If you live in or near Bergman, you can usually choose between a staff hospital position close to home or a travel/agency contract paying premium rates. Compensation in California reflects premium California RN pay driven by mandated 1:5 nurse-to-patient ratios; California is not part of the NLC compact, and experienced RNs — especially with ICU, ER, or labor & delivery experience — see noticeably stronger offers from Bergman-area employers.
