Travel Licensed Practical Nurse Long-Term Care Job
Waterloo, NY
Contracted
Huntington Living Center
Mid Level
Embark on a meaningful journey as a Licensed Practical Nurse specializing in Long-Term Care, where your steady hands, clinical skill, and compassionate approach deliver comfort, dignity, and improved quality of life for residents day after day. In this role, you’ll become a trusted member of interdisciplinary teams, guiding residents through daily routines, long-term health planning, and aging with respect and personalization. This is more than a job — it’s a chance to leave a lasting imprint on families and communities, one patient at a time. Waterloo, New York, a welcoming community in the Finger Lakes region, offers a rich blend of small‑town warmth with access to scenic beauty, lakeside vistas, parks, museums, and seasonal activities that remind you why care is personal. And for those who dream of broader horizons, the state itself showcases a mosaic of landscapes and experiences—from lakeside getaways to vibrant urban amenities—each day presenting opportunities to grow as a nurse and to reconnect with the things you love about life outside work.
Location benefits extend beyond Waterloo’s charm. You’ll be part of a team that values compassionate care in a setting that recognizes the vital role of LPNs in long-term spaces. The arrangement also offers the flexibility to work across various locations within the United States, presenting you with the chance to experience diverse patient populations, facility cultures, and care models. Whether you prefer the close-knit community atmosphere you’ll find in Waterloo or the dynamic pace of different regions, you’ll gain exposure to a broad spectrum of resident needs—from memory care to chronic disease management—while building a robust, portable skill set. This variety not only sharpens clinical judgment but also expands your professional network, helping you grow into appropriate leadership roles or specialized clinical pathways in long-term care.
Role specifics and benefits are designed to support your clinical autonomy while keeping you connected to a strong support network. In this assignment, you’ll provide direct nursing care under the supervision of registered nurses and physicians, administering medications, monitoring vital signs, assessing changes in condition, and recognizing early warning signs that require prompt escalation. You’ll assist with activities of daily living, help residents maintain mobility and safety, perform wound care as directed, manage care plans, document thoroughly, and educate residents and families about treatment plans and healthy routines. Your leadership can emerge as you partner with care teams to optimize resident comfort, reduce hospital transfers, and promote dignity in everyday tasks. The position offers competitive compensation with a weekly pay range of $1,357 to $1,417, acknowledging the value you bring to every shift. The assignment begins on 01/13/2026 and runs for multiple weeks, with the flexibility of extension opportunities if you and the facility choose to continue. In addition to a potential sign-on bonus and housing assistance, you’ll have access to a broad set of resources designed to ensure your success on the road. You’ll also enjoy the advantage of an extensive support system, including 24/7 assistance from our dedicated traveling team, ready to help with scheduling, housing logistics, and any clinical or logistical questions that arise on the road. While the posted pay and hours are estimates and can vary by location and assignment, this program is built to offer you meaningful, stable work during a period where your expertise is most needed. Even as you move between assignments, the continuity of support ensures you’re never alone in managing the demands of travel nursing in long‑term care.
Our company values the people who deliver care first. We’re committed to empowering our staff by prioritizing career advancement, ongoing learning, and a supportive work environment that respects your contributions and invites your input. We champion mentorship, peer collaboration, and structured opportunities to enhance clinical competencies—from wound care optimization and geriatric pharmacology to leadership pathways in care coordination and quality improvement. The culture is built on trust, with an emphasis on work-life balance, transparent communication, and recognition of the essential role you play in residents’ lives. By joining our team, you’ll be choosing a partner that places people at the center of the mission and equips you to grow as a nurse—whether that means expanding into preceptorship, pursuing specialty credentials, or taking on expanded responsibilities within care teams.
Ready to apply? If you’re a compassionate LPN with a passion for long‑term care and you’re drawn to a program that values your expertise, this is your invitation to join a nationwide network that supports your growth while you care for residents in meaningful, intimate settings. Take this opportunity to contribute to a culture of excellence, learn from diverse teams, and advance your career with a company that prioritizes your professional development and well‑being.
