Embark on a rewarding journey as a Licensed Practical Nurse in Long-Term Care, where your compassionate care shapes daily life for residents who deserve dignity, comfort, and respect. In Gallup, New Mexico, you’ll join a close-knit team that values clinical excellence, thorough documentation, and proactive communication. This assignment begins on 01/02/2026 and runs in blocks of weeks, with the opportunity for extension based on mutual fit and demand. As you deliver hands‑on nursing care, you’ll support residents across activities of daily living, monitor health status, administer medications, perform routine assessments, and implement care plans tailored to each individual. You’ll collaborate closely with physicians, social workers, and certified nursing assistants to ensure seamless, person-centered care. With guaranteed 36 hours per week and a competitive weekly pay ranging from $1,417 to $1,551, you’ll gain financial stability while expanding geriatric proficiency and confidence in a supportive environment.
Gallup sits at the intersection of cultural heritage and natural beauty, offering a welcoming community and easy access to outdoor adventures. You’ll experience warm Pueblo and Native American influences, regional cuisine, and year-round opportunities to explore local trails, scenic drives, and nearby mesas.

Your role centers on delivering high‑quality, safe nursing care within the long‑term care continuum. Responsibilities include wound care, pain management, medication administration, infection control, monitoring chronic conditions, documenting changes, and updating care plans as needs evolve. You’ll lead and participate in care conferences, mentor newly hired aides, and advocate for residents’ preferences and rights. The position offers robust professional growth: access to continuing education, opportunities to expand skills in geriatric pharmacology, wound healing, palliative care basics, and potential pathway toward charge nurse responsibilities or specialized certifications. Competitive benefits include sign‑on or performance bonuses, housing assistance to ease relocation, and the possibility of extension opportunities. To support your journey, our company provides round‑the‑clock assistance and 24/7 support while you’re traveling, ensuring you’re never alone when you need help or guidance on the road or in unfamiliar facilities.
