Auditing Registered Nurse RN

Are you a clinically strong RN who believes hospice care deserves both heart and excellence?

We are seeking a mission-driven Auditing RN who is passionate about protecting quality, strengthening documentation integrity, and elevating patient care standards across hospice and palliative services.

This is not a bedside role — it is a clinical impact role
. You will help ensure that every patient receives care that meets regulatory standards, ethical best practices, and our agency’s unwavering commitment to dignity at end of life.

For nearly 100 years, the Visiting Nurse Association of Texas (VNA) has been a trusted pioneer in hospice care, helping our neighbors age with dignity and independence. Our mission-driven work spans 16 counties across North Texas—including Collin, Dallas, Denton, Kaufman, and Tarrant to rural communities in Fannin and Navarro—ensuring no one faces life's transitions alone. As a non-profit, we prioritize people over profits, treating every patient like family and maintaining a gold standard of clinical excellence.

Beyond hospice, our community roots run deep through programs like Meals on Wheels.

Joining our team means more than a competitive salary and mileage reimbursement. We offer comprehensive medical, dental, and vision plans, along with employer-paid life and short and long-term disability insurance. To support your future, we offer a 401(k) with a 6% match and a fast, two-year vesting schedule. We also prioritize work-life harmony through generous PTO, eight total paid holidays, and opportunities for professional growth and tuition reimbursement—all within a supportive, mission-driven culture.

Hospice care demands precision, compassion, and accountability. As our Auditing RN, you will:

• Safeguard clinical excellence through documentation audits
• Strengthen compliance and regulatory readiness
• Support performance improvement initiatives
• Educate field staff on documentation best practices
• Protect the integrity of patient care across the organization

Your work directly influences quality outcomes, survey readiness, and patient experience.

Reporting to the Manager of Education and partnering with Quality leadership, you will:

• Conduct audits for admissions, discharges, recertifications, and Performance Improvement Plans (PIPs)
• Analyze findings and communicate results clearly and professionally to leadership
• Provide targeted education to interdisciplinary team (IDT) members based on audit trends
• Ensure orders are processed, signed, and filed timely
• Support hospice and palliative documentation compliance
• Promote agency philosophy, policies, and quality standards
• Demonstrate efficiency and competence within the electronic medical record (EMR)

We’re looking for a professional who blends clinical knowledge with regulatory precision.

Required:

• Graduate of an accredited vocational nursing program
• Current Registered Nurse (RN) license
• Minimum 2 years of clinical experience
• Strong knowledge of nursing standards of practice
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills
• Reliable transportation and valid auto liability insurance
• Ability to pass background screening
• Proof of TB test and Hepatitis consent/declination

Preferred:

• Hospice or home health experience
• Experience with chart audits or quality review
• Familiarity with performance improvement processes

This is a hybrid position that combines remote documentation review with occasional in-person meetings and collaboration. You will work within a supportive, interdisciplinary team culture that values communication, accountability, and shared commitment to hospice excellence. The environment is fast-paced and performance-driven, requiring strong critical thinking skills, sound clinical judgment, and the ability to manage multiple priorities effectively. The role involves prolonged periods of sitting and standing, and may occasionally require lifting up to 50 pounds when working in field settings.
