How to Find Legit Remote Nursing Jobs in Texas (Without Falling for Scams or Getting Overwhelmed)

Why Texas Nurses are Saying 'Y’all, This Remote Thing Rocks'

If you’ve ever fantasized about swapping 14-hour shifts for a schedule you actually control, you’re in good company. Nurses across Texas—from Austin hipsters to Amarillo cowgirls—are making the jump to remote roles. And the market? Hotter than a July sidewalk. With everyone from Baylor Scott & White to national giants like Wheel and Carenet Health beefing up their remote teams, there’s never been a better time to hang up your clinical sneakers.

Herding Cattle… Err, Job Listings: Where to Actually Find Remote Nurse Openings

We all know the struggle—a dozen shady job boards, listings that turn out to be vaporware, and recruiters who ghost harder than your cousin after Thanksgiving. Forget all that. Telehealth Nurse Network’s curated job board only lists legit, RN-vetted remote roles (no MLM, no faxing your soul to mystery employers). Bonus: you can filter for Texas employers, like UnitedHealth Group in Houston or Aledade in Dallas, who are always looking for local expertise.

Spot the Fakes: How NOT to Get Scammed

It’s wild out there. Unfortunately, scammy fake recruiter emails are everywhere—especially in Texas, where remote nursing demand is sky-high. Here are your nurse-friend red flags:

• If it sounds too good to be true ($120/hr, no experience required—riiight), hit delete.
• Legit employers never ask you to pay for training up front or wire ‘equipment fees.’
• Double-check: Is the company listed on the Telehealth Nurse Network job board? And on their real company website?
• Ask our community—someone’s probably seen the scam before.

Sweeten Your Application: Texas-Sized Resume Tips

Here’s the secret: Don’t just copy-paste your last hospital job. For Texas remote gigs, play up any triage, case management, or EMR experience. Got great phone or email skills wrangling stubborn docs or patients? That’s gold. If you’re new to remote, the Telehealth Resume Starter Pack has field-tested templates, interview cheat sheets, & application checklists nurses in Dallas and El Paso swear by.
