Who we are
The North Okanagan Hospice Society (NOHS) provides quality palliative care services. We have been the only community based palliative care facility in the North Okanagan making moments matter for 40 years. Our entire team believe in adding more life to each day for people with a palliative diagnosis. We also provide grief and bereavement services to all age groups. In 2024, we will be offering “Hospice at Home” care to the community in addition to our residential hospice services located in Vernon, BC.
Why we are looking
Our current Executive Director has guided us through a period of significant change fulfilling their mandate to transform our organization. The next phase – to become a world-class palliative care facility encompassing expert staff, progressive and compassionate services and an outstanding culture – has more focus on management, execution and delivery.
What we are looking for
We are looking for an experienced healthcare leader with home health/hospice experience who will embrace our vision and direct our day to day operation ensuring that programs and services meet the needs of our community today and in the future.
Who you are

You are inspired by our strategic goal of developing an expert team to provide world-class palliative care and have demonstrated success in leading people and fostering a team environment. Your collaborative approach enables you to partner with multiple stakeholders to create an inclusive and respectful community. You are a skilled communicator adept at navigating relationships with public partners, managing union negotiations and engaging the public and the media. From a business perspective, you are part innovator and part administrator. You understand organizational planning, development and budgeting, you can read a financial statement and can raise funds. An astute decision maker, your ability to assess challenges and seek opportunities creates pathways to success. While you are passionate about quality and service it must be founded by compassion and empathy. And most importantly, you have shown an unwavering dedication to your past missions and you can get behind NOHS's vision, mission and values.
What you will do
Reporting directly to the Board of Directors, you will be responsible for oversight and administration of NOHS’s programs, services and strategic priorities. You will facilitate annual strategic planning and operationalize the plan. You will communicate collaboratively, providing information necessary for the Board to function properly and make informed decisions. You will ensure financial sustainability of NOHS through wise fiscal management. You will support developing an expert team and provide fair and wise human resource leadership.
