Job Description

Description

About the Role
As a Hospice Nurse (LVN) with Touchstone Health in San Antonio, you’ll step into work that is deeply human. This role is about more than clinical care — it’s about presence, steadiness, and helping patients and families navigate one of life’s most meaningful transitions.

You’ll provide skilled nursing care in the home, supporting comfort, dignity, and connection at the end of life. With autonomy in the field and the backing of a collaborative care team, you’ll have the space to do what you do best: show up fully for your patients.

Our mission is to bring out the courage in others — and in hospice care, that mission comes to life every day. 

Key Responsibilities

  • Provide skilled nursing care to hospice patients under the direction of an RN, following individualized care plans  
  • Administer medications and treatments while ensuring patient comfort and symptom management  
  • Monitor and document physical, emotional, and psychosocial changes, communicating updates to the care team  
  • Educate patients and families on care, expectations, and comfort-focused approaches  
  • Collaborate with interdisciplinary team members to provide coordinated, compassionate care  
  • Maintain accurate, timely documentation and uphold all compliance and safety standards  

Requirements

What We’re Looking For

  • Current, unrestricted LVN license in Texas 
  • At least 1 year of nursing experience (hospice or home health strongly preferred)  
  • CPR (BLS) certification 
  • Ability to remain calm under pressure and provide steady, reassuring care 
  • Strong reliability and follow-through — patients and families depend on you 
  • Comfort working independently in the field while staying connected to a team 
  • Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation  

Why Join Us
At Touchstone Health, you’re not just taking a job — you’re stepping into meaningful work with a team that values trust, integrity, and collaboration.

  • Real Patient Impact: Be present for patients and families during moments that truly matter 
  • Autonomy in Your Work: Practice independently while supported by an experienced clinical team 
  • Flexibility: A role designed to give you balance while meeting patient needs 
  • Growth Opportunities: Develop your skills and expand your impact within a mission-driven organization 
  • Values-Driven Culture: We lead with compassion, discipline, and transparency in everything we do 

This role isn’t easy. Hospice care requires emotional strength, steadiness, and sensitivity. But for the right person, it’s also some of the most meaningful work you can do.

If you’re someone who brings calm into difficult moments and shows up with consistency and care — you’ll belong here.
