Mid Level
Answer the call to serve as a Registered Nurse in Long-Term Care, bringing dignity, comfort, and expert clinical care to residents who depend on you. This travel opportunity begins March 16, 2026, and runs for several weeks with a guaranteed 36 hours per week, delivering competitive weekly pay ranging from $1,834 to $1,898. If you’re ready to apply your clinical voice where it matters most while exploring new communities, this assignment offers a unique chance to grow within the LTC specialty, build lasting bonds with residents and teams, and expand your professional horizon across the country. You’ll be supported every step of the way as you join a collaborative network that values clinical excellence, compassion, and resilience in a high-demand setting.
Based in Kansas, Iola offers a welcoming small-town atmosphere with access to larger city amenities, vibrant local events, outdoor recreation, and a safe, supportive backdrop for high-quality patient care. You’ll experience the charm of Kansas landscapes—from sunlit mornings in prairie towns to quiet evenings along nearby parks and rivers. In addition to the host community, the role may provide opportunities to rotate across varied LTC facilities in other locations across the U.S., broadening your clinical exposure, enhancing your adaptability, and enriching your professional portfolio with diverse patient populations and care models. This pathway supports you in building a versatile resume while enjoying the unique experiences that come with traveling nursing, including exposure to different care models, staffing patterns, and interdisciplinary teamwork that strengthens clinical judgment and leadership capabilities.
As an LTC RN, you’ll lead, mentor, and collaborate with nursing teams to deliver comprehensive geriatric care, medication management, wound care, rehab support, and meticulous charting to ensure safe transitions and optimal outcomes. You’ll perform assessments, develop care plans, administer medications, monitor vital signs, respond to emergencies, and coordinate with physicians, therapists, and social workers to address the whole person—physical, emotional, and social needs. The role emphasizes professional growth within long-term care, including opportunities to refine leadership skills, advance clinical competencies, and pursue specialty certifications. The package includes a competitive base, plus a welcome bonus and housing assistance to ease transition, with the potential for contract extensions should you form strong bonds with the team and community. You’ll enjoy extensive support, including 24/7 assistance from a dedicated travel concierge and on-call clinical specialists who can help navigate complex cases, staffing fluctuations, and transportation or logistics questions while you’re on assignment. With guaranteed hours and a structured schedule, you can plan ahead while still benefiting from the flexibility that traveling offers, all while delivering compassionate, patient-centered care.
Our company is built on empowering caregivers, investing in ongoing education, mentorship, and a culture of respect and collaboration. We prioritize a supportive work environment where nurses feel heard, valued, and prepared for career advancement—from clinical leadership tracks to specialty practice roles. The travel framework delivers exposure to varied facility cultures, technologies, and care philosophies, enabling you to sharpen decision-making, communication, and resilience in fast-paced LTC settings. You’ll be part of a community that celebrates your contributions and provides the resources you need to grow—from onboarding through ongoing professional development and opportunities to extend your assignment or transition to new locations that align with your goals. If you’re seeking meaningful impact, diversified LTC experience, and a pathway to greater autonomy and expertise, you’ve found a compelling match.
Ready to make an impact as a compassionate, skilled LTC RN? Apply today to join a team that recognizes your expertise, supports your professional development, and helps you grow both personally and professionally while you explore Kansas and beyond. Embrace the chance to serve residents with dignity, expand your clinical toolkit, and build a dynamic career in long-term care. The sunsets over the Flint Hills, the friendly faces in Iola, and the chance to shape care across platforms await your leadership.
