Embark on a rewarding journey as a Registered Nurse specializing in Long-Term Care in Herrin, Illinois—a setting where compassionate care meets professional growth and lasting resident impact. This multi-week assignment starts on February 16, 2026, offering a consistent schedule with guaranteed 36 hours per week and competitive weekly pay ranging from $1,986 to $2,097. You’ll join a dedicated team committed to elevating the standard of care for seniors, delivering comprehensive assessments, evidence-based interventions, and warm, person-centered support. From the moment you arrive, you’ll be empowered to lead with clinical excellence, collaborate with interdisciplinary teammates, and champion quality outcomes for residents during every shift.

Beautiful places in Illinois. When you’re not delivering exceptional care, the state offers a wealth of beauty and adventure to recharge your spirit. Explore the rugged beauty of Shawnee National Forest, where scenic trails and tranquil vistas invite reflection after a busy day on the unit. Marvel at Garden of the Gods, a geological wonder that provides inspiring parkland and photo-worthy views. Discover the charm of Starved Rock State Park with its rolling bluffs and waterfall corridors, or stroll through historic Cahokia Mounds to connect with the region’s deep cultural roots. Whether you crave outdoor exploration, city culture, or quiet small-town evenings, Illinois invites you to balance meaningful work with memorable experiences in your downtime.

Location Benefits: Herrin offers a welcoming, community-focused atmosphere with access to essential amenities, affordable living, and a supportive network of healthcare professionals. You’ll benefit from the stability of a dedicated facility in a thriving region, with opportunities to collaborate closely with experienced staff who value mentorship and professional development. For nurses seeking broader horizons, the role also opens pathways to travel assignments across the United States with the same trusted partner, allowing you to broaden clinical exposure, learn new care models, and build a versatile resume while maintaining the security and support of a respected organization. The arrangement supports flexible extension opportunities, enabling you to continue contributing where you’re most impactful and to grow your LTC expertise alongside seasoned clinicians.

Role Specifics and Benefits: As an LTC Registered Nurse on this assignment, you’ll perform comprehensive resident assessments, administer medications, implement individualized care plans, monitor chronic conditions, and implement falls prevention and bedding/wound care strategies. You’ll document changes, communicate with physicians and families, and lead care coordination within an interdisciplinary team to optimize comfort, safety, and dignity for every resident. Your clinical leadership will guide care transitions, with a focus on evidence-based practices, infection control, and regulatory compliance. The role presents robust opportunities for professional growth in geriatric nursing, palliative approaches, and dementia care within a supportive LTC setting. Competitive benefits include a sign-on bonus, housing assistance for eligible travelers, and clear extension pathways to longer-term assignments or additional shifts based on facility needs and your career goals. You’ll have access to 24/7 support from our dedicated travel staffing team, ensuring you’re never navigating challenges alone—whether you’re onboarding, relocating, or on the road. The program emphasizes comprehensive onboarding, clinical mentorship, and ongoing education to sharpen your skills and expand your scope of practice, with resources to help you balance patient load, documentation, and head-to-toe care delivery.
