The city

Living in Waxahachie, TX

Waxahachie sits about 30 miles south of Dallas, offering a slower-paced North Texas lifestyle within commuting distance of major DFW medical centers. Its historic downtown is known for Victorian-era architecture, anchored by the striking Ellis County Courthouse. Out-of-state RNs will find a welcoming small-city atmosphere with big-city access.

More about Legend Oaks Healthcare and Rehabilitation of Waxahachie

You give 24-hour nursing under in-house physicians, support short-term rehab with an in-house therapy team and a Total Care Plan, and can work inside an integrated memory-care program for short-term or permanent stays. Admissions run around the clock, and Baylor Scott and White Medical Center is 1.3 miles away. Shifts are twelve hours, 6am–6pm options on days or nights, on a rotating pattern: Week 1 Monday, Tuesday, Friday, Saturday; Week 2 Sunday, Wednesday, Thursday, with every other Friday/Saturday/Sunday off and a Sunday–Saturday pay period. Posted RN/LVN pay sits at $27–$35 an hour. Benefits listed with those roles include BCBS health plans, dental, vision, disability, life, 401(k) match, PTO, FSA/HSA, employee discounts, plus tuition reimbursement, tuition assistance, and scholarships. You need a Texas LVN or RN license and work in person. Waxahachie itself is a small-town and suburban stretch about thirty miles south of Dallas—no state income tax, compact-license state—with a historic downtown and highway links locals describe as short enough to keep family time. One honest note: third-party listings show modest scores, around the low-to-mid 3s on Indeed and about 2.2 from ten Caring.com reviews.

Interdisciplinary Total Care Plan with personalized recovery planning, in-house therapy, and integrated cognitive/memory care for short-term or permanent stays.
