Good Shepherd Hospice

The work is on-call heavy—weekend blocks, Mon–Thu stretches, and full-time on-call shaped as 3x12s show up in postings—and nurses here often mention flexible scheduling. The organization is a private hospice founded in 1995, headquartered in Oklahoma City, with offices across Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri, and Texas and a stated mission of serving people with compassion and dignity. Day to day, you are out with patients and families rather than on a fixed unit floor. Colleagues frequently describe a caring atmosphere and real teamwork, and former staff have called out chaplains, social workers, nurses, and aides who genuinely show up. Local leaders often get credit for being supportive even when upper management draws criticism for communication and stability. The honest tradeoff is workload. Reviews describe heavy caseloads, not enough case managers for the census, and a wide on-call geography that can mean long drives and longer response times. Mileage reimbursement has been called below the national average by at least one employee. If you already know hospice or home health and want community-based end-of-life work in a compact Kansas city, this is a concrete place to look—not a perfect one.
