Working as a LVN in Waco
Per diem LVN shifts here center on medication passes, treatments and wound care, assessments, and charting across skilled nursing, rehab, and long-term care, with CNAs on the floor and an RN or DON available. Per diem LVNs here pick up a mix of weekday, night, and weekend shifts, and nights and weekends carry the biggest premiums. LVN shifts post here less often than CNA and LVN work does, so the rate shown reflects what LVNs were paid across Texas rather than in Waco specifically. If you want steady LVN hours, set your alerts for Waco and the surrounding markets and claim as shifts open.
Waco sits at the center of Texas along I-35 between Dallas and Austin, where Baylor Scott & White Hillcrest Medical Center and Ascension Providence anchor acute care. A network of skilled nursing and assisted living communities across McLennan County keeps nurse shifts available across Hewitt, Woodway, Bellmead, and Robinson.
Texas is a Nurse Licensure Compact state, so a multistate LVN license from another compact state is valid here without separate Texas licensure.
