About Agape Care Group

A leading hospice, palliative, and pediatric comfort care provider in the Southeast, Agape Care Group is dedicated to serving patients and families with love and delivering the highest quality care. Our network consists of Agape Care South Carolina and Agape Care Georgia, and at any location within our company, you’ll find a career that means something. You’ll not only have the opportunity to use your skills to make a real difference, but you’ll also be part of an inclusive, respectful work environment filled with peers who have answered the call to care for others. 

We’ve worked hard to build a culture of caring and service that reverberates throughout Agape Care, and we’d love for you to join our family.

Who We Are Looking For 

A registered nurse who epitomizes our values, including integrity, authenticity, and steadfastness. If you’re ready to make a difference in the lives of others and in the community, this is the place for you. 

As a registered nurse at Agape Care, you’ll work under the direction and supervision of the clinical supervisor. You’ll evaluate patients, create care plans, and ensure correct documentation, all while communicating with everyone involved (patient, patient’s family, care team, supervisor). You’ll also oversee licensed practical nurses and the home health aide to ensure every patient receives quality care. And just like all of our team members, we ask our RNs to uphold Agape Care’s core values and standards.
