Home Health Nurse Jobs in Texas: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a home health nurse in Texas?

You become a home health nurse in Texas by first earning an Associate Degree in Nursing or a Bachelor of Science in Nursing, then passing the NCLEX-RN exam and obtaining licensure through the Texas Board of Nursing. Texas participates in the Nurse Licensure Compact, so nurses licensed in other compact states may practice in Texas without a separate application. Most Texas home health agencies also require at least one year of prior clinical experience before hiring.

How much do home health nurses make in Texas?

Home health nurses in Texas earn a median of about $95,970 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $67,120 for the lowest 10% to over $127,950 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.

Which companies hire home health nurses in Texas?

Employers hiring home health nurses in Texas right now include Optum, Ascension at Home together with Compassus, and UT Southwestern Medical Center, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of June 2026. Texas's large and geographically spread population means established home health organizations maintain substantial regional offices in the state's major metro areas year-round.

Which Texas cities have the most home health nurse jobs?

Dallas, Fort Worth, and San Antonio have the most home health nurse openings in Texas. Houston's size and concentration of large hospital systems and home health agencies drives the highest raw volume, while Dallas-Fort Worth's sprawling suburban population and San Antonio's large military and veteran community create sustained demand for in-home clinical care across those regions.

Are there remote home health nurse jobs in Texas?

Yes, but they're rare. Home health nursing is a hands-on, patient-facing role that requires in-person visits, so fully remote positions make up a small share of the market. About 0% of home health nurse openings tied to Texas are remote or hybrid as of June 2026, and those positions tend to involve telephonic case management or clinical documentation review rather than direct patient care.

How can I get hired as a home health nurse in Texas with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is completing a new-graduate residency or orientation program offered by large Texas home health agencies such as Amedisys or Kindred at Home, which provide supervised field training for nurses transitioning from hospital or clinical settings. Lateral moves from med-surg, rehabilitation, or hospice nursing are common entry points because those backgrounds transfer directly to home health caseloads. Holding an active Texas Board of Nursing license and a current BLS certification gives first-time applicants a clear competitive edge over candidates who are still in process.

Where can I find and apply to home health nurse jobs in Texas?

You can find and apply to home health nurse jobs in Texas on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from employers hiring in the state right now. Search the listings for roles that match your experience level and preferred region, then apply directly to the ones that fit.
