Penn Primary Care/Penn Specialty Practices
Mid Level
Embark on a rewarding journey as a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) in Long-Term Care in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, beginning 03/23/2026. This opportunity is more than a role—it’s a chance to shape comfort, dignity, and daily well-being for residents who rely on empathetic, professional care. In this setting, your hands-on skills, your compassionate communication, and your steady presence will become a cornerstone of residents’ quality of life. And beyond the walls of the facility, Pennsylvania offers a tapestry of beauty and history—from the iconic skyline and historic neighborhoods of Philadelphia to the scenic avenues and rolling landscapes that define the Keystone State. Weekend escapes to the Pocono Mountains, the winding trails of state parks, and scenic drives along old rail towns provide refreshing transitions that compliment a purpose-driven career.
Location Benefits: Working in Philadelphia places you at the heart of a thriving healthcare community, with access to top-tier facilities, specialized teams, and ample opportunities for learning and collaboration. The city’s diverse patient populations offer rich learning experiences in geriatric care, chronic disease management, and palliative support within long-term care settings. If you crave variety, our travel program enables assignments across the United States, exposing you to different care models, regulatory environments, and interdisciplinary teams. This cross-location exposure expands your skill set, enhances your clinical judgment, and strengthens your professional network. Expect robust urban amenities, cultural experiences, and convenient transit options, balanced by the restorative nearby escapes that Pennsylvania’s countryside provides after a meaningful day with residents.
Role Specifics and Benefits:
- Core responsibilities: Provide direct patient care under the supervision of RNs and physicians, including medication administration within scope, monitoring vital signs, wound care, daily living assistance, and assistance with activities of daily living. You’ll contribute to accurate shift handoffs, participate in care planning discussions, document progress in electronic health records, and advocate for resident safety and comfort. Your role includes reinforcing infection control practices, ensuring safety in mobility and transfers, and supporting nutrition and hydration needs while upholding dignity and privacy.
- Professional growth: This assignment is designed to support ongoing development within long-term care. You’ll gain in-depth experience with geriatric comorbidities, restorative nursing, pain management, end-of-life care, and interdisciplinary team collaboration. The environment rewards initiative and curiosity, with opportunities to pursue targeted certifications and specialty trainings. Mentorship from experienced clinicians helps you refine skills, expand clinical competencies, and prepare for advanced practice opportunities should you choose to pursue them.
- Competitive benefits: Enjoy a competitive compensation package with a weekly range of $1,265–$1,315 for a 40-hour work week, with a guaranteed minimum of hours. In addition, you’ll have access to a sign-on incentive where offered, housing assistance to ease relocation or temporary lodging needs, and the option for contract extensions if you and the facility see a continued fit. Flexible scheduling and reliable payroll support ensure your compensation aligns with your dedication.
- Comprehensive support: As a traveling healthcare professional, you’ll receive 24/7 support from our dedicated travel team. This includes onboarding help, travel logistics, housing coordination, and real-time assistance while you’re on assignment. You’ll have continuous clinician-to-clinician support to address clinical questions, routing changes, or urgent care needs, so you can focus on delivering high-quality resident care with confidence.
- Scheduling and duration: This is a multi-week assignment with the potential for extensions based on facility needs and your performance. Scheduled hours are designed to provide consistency and predictability, helping you maintain work-life balance while delivering dependable care.
Company Values: Our organization is built on empowering staff to grow within their field, celebrate professional milestones, and cultivate a supportive, inclusive work environment. We support career advancement through mentorship programs, ongoing education, and transparent pathways to higher levels of responsibility. You’ll join a culture that values empathy, integrity, teamwork, and open communication—where every team member plays a vital role in enriching resident lives and advancing the standard of care in long-term settings.
