Mid Level
Step into a meaningful, hands-on role as a Licensed Practical Nurse in Long-Term Care in Peterborough, New Hampshire, where every shift offers the chance to enrich lives and uphold dignity for seniors who deserve compassionate, consistent care. In this opportunity, you’ll provide essential bedside support, medication administration within scope, and guidance on daily living activities that preserve independence and comfort. You’ll partner with a skilled interdisciplinary team to implement individualized care plans, monitor residents’ health, and respond with calm efficiency to changing needs. This position invites you to blend clinical expertise with genuine empathy, turning routine routines into moments of reassurance and respect. Nestled in the charming Monadnock region, Peterborough offers a welcoming community vibe, nearby outdoor adventures, seasonal beauty, and a pace that invites you to slow down, breathe, and connect with those you serve. If you’re drawn to state parks, scenic drives, quaint downtowns, and a supportive work environment, New Hampshire’s landscape provides a backdrop that complements a meaningful nursing career. Beyond Peterborough, the opportunity can provide exposure to varied facilities across the United States, expanding your professional horizons while maintaining a focus on high-quality geriatric care.

Location benefits go beyond the four walls of a facility. In Peterborough, you’ll experience a close-knit community where colleagues know your name and residents’ stories become part of a shared mission. The area blends small-town charm with access to cultural events, farmers markets, and a healthy respect for the aging population’s history and wisdom. For nurses who crave variety, the opportunity to work in different locations across the U.S. means you can broaden your clinical perspective, encounter diverse resident populations, and refine your assessment and care coordination skills. Each assignment offers a chance to adapt your practice to different care models, facility cultures, and family expectations, while remaining anchored by core values of safety, compassion, and patient advocacy. You’ll enjoy supportive onboarding, clear orientation, and ongoing access to resources that help you thrive in unfamiliar settings. And when you’re off shift, you can relish New Hampshire’s outdoor experiences, from foliage-washed autumns to tranquil lakes and scenic trails that invite renewal.

In this role, your daily responsibilities center on compassionate, skilled care that supports residents’ well-being and independence. You’ll perform and monitor vital signs, administer medications within scope, manage wound care and basic interventions, assist with activities of daily living, and partner with RNs and physicians to adjust care plans as conditions change. You’ll document accurately in electronic health records, participate in care conferences, and help implement safety initiatives—fall prevention, infection control, and mobility support—that protect vulnerable residents. The position offers a clear path for professional growth in long-term care, including access to ongoing education and certification support to deepen your geriatric expertise, wound care, IV therapy where permitted, and advanced practice concepts. You’ll have opportunities to assume informal leadership within your team, take on special projects, and collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to optimize resident outcomes. The compensation package is competitive and includes a sign-on bonus, housing assistance, and the potential for contract extensions that align with both facility needs and your career goals. A dedicated travel support team is available 24/7 while you’re on assignment, ensuring you receive real-time assistance with onboarding, orientation, scheduling changes, or any on-site needs. Scheduling is designed to balance patient impact with personal well-being, and you’ll have the flexibility to pursue assignments that align with your preferred locations and pace of life.

Our company is rooted in empowering staff and investing in your professional advancement. We’re committed to a supportive work environment where your expertise is respected, your ideas are heard, and your career trajectory is shaped by your ambitions. You’ll find mentorship, leadership development opportunities, and resources that encourage you to pursue additional credentials and specialization within long-term care. This emphasis on growth is paired with a culture of safety, compassion, teamwork, and open communication—principles that guide every resident interaction and every colleague relationship. We believe that when you invest in your nurses, you elevate the entire care continuum, resulting in better resident experiences, enhanced family trust, and a healthier organization overall.
