Home is where the care is. And it's where your career can have a great beginning. Kindred at Home and Gentiva bring clinically advanced treatment to patients right where they live. As the nation's largest home health and hospice provider, we utilize the opportunity to create best practices and develop them into industry-leading protocols and specialties. Making a Difference For clinicians, homecare and hospice provides a unique opportunity to deliver on the promise that led them to a career in healthcare in the first place. Providing care in the patient's home is a personal, one-to-one experience that other healthcare jobs can't match. Allowing the clinician to focus on the specific needs of the patient without other distractions is something that patients, family members and the clinicians themselves can really appreciate.
