Step into a rewarding role as a Registered Nurse (LTC) in Wrangell, Alaska, beginning 02/09/2026. This travel assignment places you at the heart of long‑term care, where your clinical expertise, compassion, and leadership will elevate the daily lives of residents. You’ll provide direct, evidence‑based nursing care in a dynamic geriatric setting, conducting thorough assessments, formulating and implementing care plans, and collaborating with an interdisciplinary team to ensure continuity of care. Your responsibilities will span medication administration, monitoring clinical responses, managing chronic conditions, and recognizing early signs of decline to intervene promptly. You’ll champion safety, energy conservation, falls prevention, wound and wound‑care education, pain management, and restorative strategies that promote independence. As you mentor Certified Nursing Assistants and Licensed Practical Nurses, you’ll foster a culture of accountability, respect, and shared learning, all while maintaining meticulous documentation and regulatory compliance. This assignment is designed to support your growth within LTC, offering structured orientation, ongoing education, and opportunities to deepen expertise in geriatric care, palliative principles, and interdisciplinary care coordination. You’ll have the chance to lead quality improvement initiatives, contribute to care standard enhancements, and refine leadership and critical thinking skills that position you for advancement within the specialty.
Wrangell and the Alaska region offer a unique backdrop for your clinical journey. In downtime, you’ll witness Alaska’s stunning natural beauty—from the tranquil waters and wildlife along Wrangell’s coastline to evergreen forests, pristine rivers, and dramatic skies. The area’s rich culture, outdoor recreation, and tight‑knit community provide a balanced environment to recharge between shifts. As a traveling RN, you’ll also enjoy the flexibility to be deployed to other locations across the United States, experiencing diverse LTC communities and care environments while maintaining a stable base and the security of guaranteed hours. This combination of personal adventure and professional variety makes the assignment especially appealing for nurses who value both meaningful care and exploration.
Role specifics and benefits include access to competitive compensation and robust support designed to empower your practice and well‑being. Core responsibilities center on delivering high‑quality resident care, coordinating care across disciplines, and leveraging evidence‑based practices to enhance outcomes for residents with multiple comorbidities. You’ll engage in comprehensive nursing assessments, monitor clinical status, administer medications and treatments per physician orders, and document accurately in electronic records. You’ll participate in care planning, evaluating progress, updating goals, and communicating changes to families and the broader care team. You’ll also take an active role in caregiver education, safety planning, and transitions of care during admissions and discharges. Professional growth is a natural outcome of this placement, with pathways to advance in geriatric nursing, leadership roles, and specialty certifications supported by the program’s learning resources and mentorship.
Benefits accompany the professional responsibilities to reflect the value we place on your expertise. The assignment offers a weekly pay range of $2,907 to $3,051, with a guaranteed 36.0 hours per week, providing stability and predictable income as you deliver compassionate LTC services.
