In this role you will blend hands-on clinical skills with compassionate communication, helping seniors maintain their quality of life while navigating complex health needs. Maine’s seasonal beauty accompanies your daily impact—fall foliage painting the streets, crisp winter mornings inviting peaceful strolls, and evenings filled with the warmth of community that makes Lewiston feel like home. For those drawn to broader horizons, this program also provides the chance to work in various locations across the United States, delivering the same level of care while expanding your professional experience and understanding of diverse resident populations.

Location Benefits: Lewiston situates you in a welcoming New England setting with an affordable cost of living, vibrant local culture, and easy access to outdoor recreation. You’ll be part of a supportive, close-knit community that values collaborative care and a patient‑centered approach. Beyond Lewiston, the opportunity to travel to other U.S. sites means you can explore seaside towns, mountains, and rural landscapes while building a versatile portfolio of geriatric nursing experiences. Seasonal events, farmers’ markets, and scenic drives become part of your professional journey, offering balance between rewarding work and enriching personal time. In Maine you’ll enjoy reliable amenities, strong community networks, and a backdrop that honors both tradition and innovation in elder care. The broader travel aspect lets you engage with different facility cultures, varied resident needs, and best practices that refine your clinical judgment, communication finesse, and adaptability.

Role Specifics and Benefits: As an LPN in Long‑Term Care, you’ll play a pivotal role in daily resident care, partnering with RNs, physicians, and interdisciplinary teams to implement care plans, monitor chronic conditions, administer medications as allowed by state regulations, and document outcomes with accuracy. You’ll assist with activities of daily living, assess pain and comfort levels, manage wound care and skin integrity, monitor nutrition and hydration, and support families through transitions and care discussions. Your clinical growth will be supported through targeted training in geriatrics, dementia‑care strategies, palliative principles, and best-practice staffing models in long‑term care. The role includes competitive compensation with a weekly pay range of $1,668–$1,728, guaranteed 40 hours per week, and start date on 01/16/2026, with the contract measured in weeks and opportunities for extension. In addition, you’ll benefit from a sign‑on or retention bonus, housing assistance, and ongoing opportunities to extend the assignment to broaden your exposure to different facilities and care models. You’ll receive comprehensive support from a dedicated travel team, including 24/7 assistance while you’re on assignment, ensuring you stay focused on patient care and your professional development. Our program emphasizes continuity of care, documentation integrity, and adherence to safety standards, giving you a clear pathway to enhanced responsibilities as you demonstrate clinical leadership and mentoring for less experienced staff. Expect a structured orientation, access to continuing education credits, and a culture that recognizes curiosity, compassion, and accountability as pillars of excellence.

Company Values and Culture: Our company is built on empowering nursing professionals, prioritizing career advancement, and cultivating a supportive work environment where feedback is valued and growth is expected. You will join teams that respect your expertise, encourage your input in care planning, and invest in your long‑term success through mentorship, regular skills refreshers, and opportunities to specialize within long‑term care. We believe that stability and professional development go hand in hand with compassionate resident care, and we strive to create workplaces where you feel heard, valued, and equipped to deliver person‑centered care with confidence. The emphasis on collaboration, respect, and continuous improvement ensures you’re part of a community that celebrates your contributions and champions your professional journey.
