Contracted
Tabitha Nursing & Rehabilitation Center
Mid Level
Embark on a meaningful journey as a Licensed Practical Nurse in Long-Term Care in Lincoln, Nebraska, where every shift offers the chance to lift spirits, restore comfort, and uphold the dignity of residents who depend on steady, compassionate care. This engaging contract role puts you at the heart of a dedicated care team, delivering hands-on clinical support, hands-on patient advocacy, and meticulous coordination with physicians, RNs, and interdisciplinary staff. Your expertise will guide daily routines, medication administration, wound care, pain management, and vital sign monitoring while you foster meaningful connections that improve quality of life. As you step into this opportunity, picture yourself not only meeting clinical needs but also empowering residents to participate in activities they love, maintain independence where possible, and feel seen, respected, and secure. In Nebraska, where community spirit meets expansive horizons, this role becomes a gateway to professional fulfillment—and a chance to experience the state’s welcoming neighborhoods, rich history, and outdoor beauty.
Lincoln offers a compelling backdrop for your professional journey. Known for its blend of small-town warmth and urban amenities, the city offers vibrant dining, cultural events, parks, and a strong sense of community. Nebraska’s broad plains, scenic sunsets, and accessible outdoor spaces invite weekend explorations—from river trails along the Platte to nearby wildlife refuges and state parks. This assignment also opens doors to additional opportunities across the United States, letting you experience diverse care settings, resident populations, and healthcare models while maintaining the same commitment to exceptional patient care. You’ll have the chance to immerse yourself in different facility cultures, learning approaches to long-term care that will broaden your clinical perspective and sharpen your leadership within the LTC arena.
In this role, you’ll deliver essential LTC nursing within a supportive, team-based environment. Your responsibilities will include comprehensive patient assessment, medication administration in line with physician orders, monitoring of vital signs, and documentation that ensures continuity of care and regulatory compliance. You’ll assist with activities of daily living, mobility support, device management where appropriate, and fall prevention strategies, all while educating residents and families about health conditions and care plans. You’ll play a key role in developing and updating individualized care plans, setting realistic goals, and collaborating with RNs to adjust treatment in response to changing conditions. The position also offers pathways for professional growth within the LTC specialty—opportunities to deepen expertise in dementia care, palliative approaches, restorative nursing, or care coordination across transitions of care. And you’ll have access to resources that support your clinical development, from on-the-job mentorship to continuing education, so you can expand your skill set while delivering high-quality patient outcomes.
Compensation and benefits reflect a strong commitment to rewarding your expertise and reliability. This contract offers competitive weekly pay in the range of $1,367 to $1,417, with guaranteed hours of 36 per week, supporting both financial stability and predictable scheduling. The package includes a bonus opportunity, plus housing assistance to ease relocation or temporary housing needs, and extension opportunities that allow you to extend a successful assignment if you choose. Beyond the financial package, you’ll benefit from comprehensive support designed for traveling clinicians: a dedicated support team available 24/7, ready to assist with housing, logistics, licensing questions, and on-site needs, ensuring you can focus on delivering excellent patient care and maintaining work-life balance. The arrangement is designed with your wellbeing in mind, combining the reliability of steady hours with the flexibility to pursue professional development and explore different care environments across the U.S.
The company’s values center on empowering staff, fostering a culture of growth, recognition, and mutual respect. You’ll be part of a supportive community that prioritizes career advancement and a positive work environment, providing mentorship, training opportunities, and access to resources that help you achieve your professional goals while delivering compassionate care to residents. The emphasis is on partnership—between you and the care team, between facility leadership and staff, and between residents and their families—so every nurse can contribute to sustained improvements in resident wellbeing and quality of life.
If you’re ready to apply, this is your invitation to join a company that values your clinical expertise, resilience, and dedication to LTC care. Start date is December 29, 2025, with a schedule designed to fit a traveling clinician’s life while maintaining a steady, dependable rhythm through guaranteed weekly hours.
