Mid Level
Step into a transformative role as a Licensed Practical Nurse, specializing in Long-Term Care, with a premier travel healthcare program in Rio Rancho, New Mexico. The assignment begins on 03/09/2026 and spans multiple weeks, guaranteeing 36 hours per week and a competitive weekly pay range of $1,470 to $1,495. In this essential position, you’ll be at the frontline of resident-centered care, delivering compassionate support that promotes dignity, independence, and comfort for individuals living with chronic needs. Your clinical expertise will drive precise medication administration, assessment, and timely interventions, while you partner with registered nurses, physicians, therapists, and social workers to implement tailored care plans. This is more than a shift—it’s an opportunity to shape daily experiences, reduce discomfort, and strengthen families’ peace of mind through consistent, high-quality care.
Rio Rancho and New Mexico offer a compelling backdrop for your professional journey. Nestled on the edge of the greater Albuquerque area, this region provides access to the stunning beauty of the Sandia Mountains, expansive desert vistas, and vibrant southwestern culture. Enjoy mild winters, sunny days, and abundant outdoor recreation—from hiking and biking to scenic drives that reveal dramatic landscapes and starlit skies. Beyond the local charm, New Mexico’s unique heritage, art scenes, cuisine, and festivals create an inspiring setting for your work-life balance. For clinicians who relish variety, this program also provides opportunities to work in other locations across the United States, exposing you to diverse facilities, patient populations, and care models, all while maintaining the ongoing support network you depend on.
Role specifics and benefits form a robust framework for your success. As an LPN in Long-Term Care, you will assist residents with activities of daily living, administer medications per individualized care plans, monitor vital signs, support wound care and rehabilitative services, and coordinate with the broader care team to ensure safety, dignity, and continuity of care across shifts. You’ll contribute to care planning discussions, document changes accurately, and respond promptly to evolving clinical needs. The role invites professional growth through mentorship opportunities, expanded clinical competencies, and pathways to leadership responsibilities on future assignments. Our benefits package emphasizes value and flexibility, including a competitive sign-on or completion bonus, housing assistance, and the potential for extended contracts that align with your career goals. You’ll benefit from comprehensive travel and site support, a 24/7 help-line, robust onboarding, and ongoing access to clinical resources designed to keep you confident and prepared as you rotate through varied facilities and patient cohorts.
Company values illuminate a culture that genuinely empowers clinicians. We are committed to fostering a supportive, inclusive environment where your expertise is recognized and your professional development is a priority. We invest in training, mentorship, and opportunities to advance—whether you’re strengthening clinical acumen, leading patient advocacy initiatives, or contributing to quality improvement projects.
