Step into a rewarding role as a Licensed Practical Nurse in Long-Term Care in Albuquerque, New Mexico, where your hands-on care translates into meaningful improvements for residents. This opportunity invites you to apply clinical skill, compassion, and teamwork to support seniors in a setting that honors dignity, independence, and comfort. You’ll help shape daily care plans, monitor health status, and collaborate with families and interdisciplinary teams to elevate quality of life. Your expertise will guide residents through each day with empathy, vigilance, and professional integrity. Beyond the clinical duties, New Mexico’s landscapes offer inspiration: sunny days, vibrant culture, and outdoor adventures after shifts. Notable places matter: from Sandia foothills to red-rock sunsets, the state’s beauty reinforces the purpose of your work.
In Albuquerque, you’ll find a community that values compassionate care and collaboration. The city’s mix of urban amenities, outdoor recreation, and a welcoming environment supports clinical excellence. The program also offers opportunities to work in various U.S. locations, broadening your experience while maintaining the stability of a traveling role. Expect reliable scheduling, mentorship, and access to local resources that support your life—friendly neighborhoods, educational options, and a network of caring colleagues. You’ll work with RNs, therapists, social workers, physicians, and families to deliver resident-centered care while honoring each person’s goals.
As an LPN in Long-Term Care, your duties include direct patient care, medication administration, wound care, and chronic disease management under physician orders. You’ll contribute to care plans, perform routine assessments, document changes accurately, and escalate concerns to the supervising nurse. You’ll assist residents with activities of daily living, support rehabilitation goals, monitor hydration and nutrition, manage devices, and ensure safety throughout your shift. The role offers opportunities for growth: expand geriatric assessment skills, participate in care-team education, mentor new staff, and gain exposure to palliative and end‑of‑life care. Our program supports development with ongoing training, case reviews, and leadership pathways, and you’ll benefit from a competitive compensation package that includes a weekly pay range of $914-$960 and guaranteed 36 hours per week. There’s also a sign-on bonus, housing assistance, and the chance to extend contracts to deepen your expertise. You’ll have 24/7 support while traveling with the company.
Why this matters goes beyond pay and schedules. The company is dedicated to empowering its staff, promoting career advancement, and fostering a supportive environment where your voice is valued and your well-being protected. You’ll access mentorship, education credits, and leadership opportunities as you demonstrate clinical excellence. The mission is to deliver compassionate, high‑quality care while helping you grow into roles with broader responsibility and influence in geriatric nursing. Every shift strengthens your clinical judgment, expands your network, and contributes to a culture of reliability, respect, and innovation in long-term care.
