Meeker, CO
Contracted
Pioneers Medical Center
Mid Level
Step into a pivotal traveling role as a Licensed Practical Nurse specializing in Long-Term Care, where your hands-on expertise meets the opportunity to influence countless lives and communities. Starting 02/02/2026, you’ll join a dynamic team on a contract with a guaranteed 36 hours per week and a competitive weekly pay range of $1,425-$1,474. The duration is measured in weeks to fit facility needs and your preferred pace, giving you the flexibility to plan meaningful work with periods of exploration between assignments. In this role, you’ll deliver compassionate daily care, support resident comfort, and uphold safety standards across long‑term care settings. You’ll assess, monitor, document, and respond to clinical changes, collaborate with interdisciplinary teams, and help residents maintain independence and dignity. As you travel between locations, you’ll carry the satisfaction of knowing your skill set makes a tangible difference in people’s lives while experiencing diverse communities, landscapes, and cultures.

Colorado’s Meeker location offers a gateway to a vibrant, low‑stress living environment with access to outdoor adventures and a welcoming community. Meeker provides the charm of small towns with the benefits of proximity to nature, including scenic trails, hunting and fishing opportunities, and seasonal events that enrich your time off. For those who love to explore beyond Meeker, the program extends opportunities to work in other U.S. locations, delivering the same supportive framework and consistent standards of care. Each assignment is designed to highlight the unique advantages of the area—whether you’re caring for local residents in a rural campus or experiencing a different region with its own culture, cuisine, and recreational options. The travel component adds variety to your professional life, while a stable base of housing assistance and straightforward onboarding keeps your focus on patient care.

Your core responsibilities center on safe, person‑centered nursing for residents with chronic conditions, mobility challenges, and complex medication regimens. You’ll perform focused assessments, administer medications per plan, monitor vitals, respond to clinical changes, and contribute to care plan updates. Documentation in electronic health records will be precise and timely, supporting continuity of care across shifts. You’ll work closely with certified nursing assistants, registered nurses, therapists, and physicians to coordinate daily routines that enhance comfort and function. This role also invites professional growth within the long‑term care specialty: you can deepen skills in dementia‑related care, palliative principles, wound management, and geriatric care coordination. Benefits include a welcome or completion bonus where applicable, housing assistance to ease relocation, and the chance to extend contracts to align with career goals. You’ll have robust support systems, including 24/7 assistance from a dedicated team while traveling, ensuring you have help when you need it for clinical questions or travel logistics.

Our partner organization is built on empowering staff and fostering a collaborative, respectful work environment. You’ll find mentorship, opportunities to advance into senior‑level roles, and a culture that values your professional judgment and well‑being. By supporting ongoing education and cross‑facility experiences, the company helps you turn hands‑on nursing into a progressive career path in long‑term care.
