The city
Living in Houston, TX
Clock into the Texas Medical Center for world-class care, then head home to a metro where costs run about 1% below the national average and there's no state income tax. Two things locals insist you do: respect the brutal summer heat, and check neighborhood-level flooding and drainage before you sign a lease.

More about Kindred Hospital Houston Medical Center
The patient mix is chronically critically ill—complex wounds, sepsis, stroke, heart failure, mechanical ventilation, dialysis, and IV therapy—rather than short-stay med-surg turnover. On the floor you have an ICU with 24/7 physician or physician extender coverage, an Acute Rehabilitation Unit where physiatrists lead the step from intensive care into intensive rehab, and respiratory services built around vents, with 24/7 respiratory therapy and Joint Commission certifications in Respiratory Failure and Sepsis. Renal care now includes CRRT on site along with peritoneal dialysis, hemodialysis, and SLED—added in a 2024 expansion. An Education Manager plans continuing education, in-service education, and general orientation, keeps a monthly education calendar, and evaluates staff competency with managers. Recent open roles have clustered on nights: RN full-time nights, RN PRN nights, RN Supervisor PRN nights, and CNA full-time nights.
