Join Life Care Home Health Family!

Serving Texas, Florida, Nevada, and Georgia, we provide skilled nursing, therapy, homecare, hospice, palliative care, and private duty services.

Hybrid/Remote Work Arrangement

This is a primarily remote position covering our Texas service areas, offering flexibility while still providing opportunities for in-person patient care. When a patient is located within a reasonable driving distance, we ask that the SLP provide in-person visits whenever possible. Virtual visits may be used when distance or patient needs make an in-person visit impractical.
