Embark on a transformative travel opportunity as a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) specializing in LPN care in Utica, New York. This role invites you to bring compassionate, hands-on nursing excellence to a vibrant community while sharpening your clinical acumen in a dynamic, supportive environment. You’ll empower patients through skilled care coordination, precise medication administration, and vigilant monitoring that elevates comfort, safety, and recovery. Each shift is a chance to influence outcomes, mentor teammates, and build a foundation for ongoing professional advancement. Beyond the hospital walls, New York’s landscapes unfold with quiet canal towns, rolling hills, and cultural vibrancy—Utica’s historic streets and nearby natural beauty offer enriching experiences to complement your professional journey.

Utica offers an appealing blend of community, accessibility, and opportunity. You’ll work in a setting that values teamwork, patient-centered care, and continuous learning, with the flexibility that traveling roles provide. The city serves as a gateway to broader possibilities across the United States, enabling you to broaden your experience by choosing assignments in diverse environments—from busy urban facilities to quieter suburban or rural clinics. The location supports a balanced lifestyle with an affordable cost of living, access to regional dining, arts, and outdoor recreation, and a welcoming, supportive local culture that values your contributions. For nurses who crave variety, there’s also the potential to extend your journey to other locations nationwide while maintaining the same standard of care and career growth that you’re striving for. Your weekly compensation ranges from $1,321 to $1,426, and you’ll find a path that recognizes your expertise and commitment, even if guaranteed hours are not specified.

In this LPN-focused position, your responsibilities will center on delivering high-quality patient care within the LPN scope, collaborating with RNs and physicians, and contributing to comprehensive care plans. You’ll perform essential nursing tasks such as vitals assessment, medication administration, wound and ostomy care, catheter management, ROM exercises, and assistance with activities of daily living. You’ll be adept at documenting accurately in electronic health records, recognizing changes in patient condition, and communicating promptly with the care team to ensure safety and timely interventions. You’ll support discharge planning, patient education, and family communication to promote continuity of care. The role offers a clear ladder for growth: pursue specialty certifications in areas like IV therapy, wound care, geriatrics, or palliative care, participate in in-service trainings, and engage with mentors who value your development. Benefits go beyond the basics, including a competitive compensation package with a sign-on incentive, housing assistance to ease transition, and potential extension opportunities that allow you to deepen your experience in the specialty. You’ll work within a network that provides 24/7 support while traveling with the company, ensuring you have reliable resources for travel-related questions, scheduling, and clinical guidance whenever you need it.

The company behind this opportunity is grounded in empowering its staff to reach their full potential. It prioritizes career advancement, ongoing education, and a collaborative, supportive work environment where clinicians are encouraged to contribute ideas, lead quality improvement initiatives, and grow into advanced roles. Expect access to professional development funds, structured pathways for specialty certification, and a culture that recognizes the unique perspectives of every nurse. You’ll be part of a team that celebrates success, provides meaningful feedback, and supports work-life balance, all while maintaining the highest standards of patient care. The organization believes that investing in its clinicians translates to better patient outcomes, stronger teams, and a more resilient healthcare system.
