Hospice Registered Nurse Jobs in Oregon: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a hospice registered nurse in Oregon?
To work as a hospice registered nurse in Oregon, you must hold an active RN license issued by the Oregon State Board of Nursing, which requires completing an accredited nursing program and passing the NCLEX-RN exam. A Bachelor of Science in Nursing is increasingly preferred by Oregon hospice employers, though an associate degree qualifies for licensure. Most Oregon hospice agencies also expect candidates to complete hospice-specific orientation before working independently with patients.
How much do hospice registered nurses make in Oregon?
Hospice registered nurses in Oregon earn a median of about $129,010 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $95,280 for the lowest 10% to over $155,010 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire hospice registered nurses in Oregon?
Companies currently hiring hospice registered nurses in Oregon include Providence at Home with Compassus, Optum, and Amedisys, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Oregon's mix of large integrated health systems and community-based nonprofit hospice agencies means openings are distributed across both urban medical centers and rural home-care territories throughout the state.
Which Oregon cities have the most hospice registered nurse jobs?
Bend, Eugene, and Medford have the most hospice registered nurse openings in Oregon. Portland drives the largest share of listings because it anchors the state's biggest health systems and nonprofit hospice networks, while Salem and Eugene generate consistent demand through regional medical centers and community-based agencies that serve surrounding rural counties.
Are there remote hospice registered nurse jobs in Oregon?
Yes, but they're rare. About 33% of hospice registered nurse openings tied to Oregon are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, reflecting that most hospice nursing requires direct patient contact in homes, facilities, or inpatient units. The portions of the role most compatible with remote work are telephonic triage, after-hours on-call support, and care-plan documentation.
How can I get hired as a hospice registered nurse in Oregon with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is completing a new-graduate RN residency at a large Oregon health system before moving into hospice. Providence Health & Services, Legacy Health, and PeaceHealth each run structured transition-to-practice programs that place new nurses in med-surg or palliative-adjacent units, which build the symptom-management and care-coordination skills hospice agencies look for. Completing your Oregon RN license promptly, pursuing a CHPN certification track early, and seeking volunteer or clinical hours with a community hospice organization strengthens your candidacy significantly.
