Who they are
You would practice home health and hospice nursing with St. Joseph's Home Health, Inc., a locally owned agency at 30 Village Cir in Midland that serves patients across the Permian Basin.
More about St. Joseph's Home Health, Inc.
Days are built around one-on-one visits in people’s homes—assessments, medications, ADLs, infection control, and documentation—rather than a single unit floor. LVN field work reaches Kermit and Monahans under RN direction; hospice RN roles ask you to hold a flexible schedule and travel locally. Listings emphasize flexible schedules and work-life balance, and they name benefits that include health, vision, dental, and life insurance plus paid time off. Private-pay care roles add scrubs provided. The employer describes pay as competitive for LVN and Hospice RN roles but does not post dollar amounts; third-party cards show Glassdoor ranges for RN and scheduler titles that are estimates only. Midland’s cost of living sits a little under the national level, Texas has no state income tax, and many in-town drives run about 10–15 minutes. Hospice RN openings still expect prior hospice experience, a current Texas RN license, CPR, a driver’s license, and reliable transportation—so you should weigh that bar before you apply.
Internal recognition such as the Sunshine Award highlights patient advocacy and willingness to take on extra work for patients.

Before you decide
Weighing a first job here?
The license clock and the job hunt run at once, and new-grad windows do the deciding. Residency commitments carry fine print worth reading before you sign.
