You’ll support residents in daily living activities, monitor health status, administer medications per physician orders, perform routine treatments, and collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to implement care plans that honor dignity, independence, and comfort. Your work will help residents maintain function, prevent hospital readmissions, and experience a higher quality of life.

New York State is a tapestry of landscapes and cultures, where history and modern energy intersect. In Amsterdam, you’ll find a welcoming community with the warmth that makes addressing daily care both meaningful and doable. Beyond the facility doors, the state offers beautiful places to unwind and recharge: the tranquil paths along the Mohawk and Hudson rivers, the serene beauty of the Adirondack and Catskill regions, and the spectacular falls and trails around Niagara Falls. Whether you seek a lakeside sunset after a busy shift or a weekend exploring museums and waterfronts, New York’s diverse scenery complements a career built on compassion. The opportunity also includes the potential to work in different locations across the United States, building a versatile portfolio of care experiences that enrich your clinical skills and professional resilience.

Location benefits go beyond scenery. Amsterdam, NY, combines close-knit community advantages with accessible amenities, affordable living, and a safe environment that supports sustained, patient-centered care. The upstate pace offers a balanced rhythm—enough time to listen to residents’ stories while maintaining the high standards of documentation and protocol your role requires. For those drawn to travel and variety, the program provides pathways to work at partner facilities in various regions, enriching your skill set through exposure to diverse rural, suburban, and urban populations. This blend of steady, quality-focused care and opportunities for geographic and professional expansion creates a unique platform for your growth.

Role specifics and benefits center on you thriving as a Long-Term Care LPN. You’ll perform essential duties within your licensed scope, including accurate vital signs assessment, medication administration, wound care, dressing changes, insulin administration where applicable, and proactive monitoring for changes in condition. You’ll contribute to the care plan by communicating with nurses, physicians, rehabilitation therapists, and social services, ensuring a holistic approach to each resident’s well-being. You’ll engage in fall prevention strategies, mobility assistance, daily living support, and comfort measures that uphold dignity at every stage. The position highlights competitive benefits, including a bonus opportunity, housing assistance, and contract extension avenues—giving you both immediate value and long-term potential. You’ll receive robust, 24/7 support from a dedicated team, including on-call guidance and travel assistance as needed, so you never navigate challenges alone. With guaranteed hours, you can plan finances confidently while focusing on excellent patient care.

Company values emphasize empowering staff through ongoing education, mentorship, and clear pathways for career advancement. The organization is committed to creating a supportive environment where your clinical judgment is respected, your professional development is nourished, and your voice helps shape resident outcomes. You’ll have access to continuing education resources, leadership opportunities, and a culture that rewards compassionate care, teamwork, and accountability.
