Embark on a purpose‑driven journey as a Licensed Practical Nurse in Long‑Term Care, where your steady hands and keen judgment translate into comfort, safety, and renewed dignity for residents every day. This travel‑friendly opportunity places you in Anamosa, Iowa, a welcoming community known for its small‑town warmth, accessible outdoor spaces, and a rich landscape of cultural and natural beauty. In this role, you’ll blend clinical excellence with compassionate communication, building trusted relationships with residents, families, and a multidisciplinary care team. Picture the daily impact you’ll have—preventing discomfort, supporting independence, and helping residents flourish in familiar surroundings even as health needs evolve. This assignment begins 02/18/2026 and runs for several weeks, with guaranteed 36 hours per week, offering stability within a dynamic travel setting. Beyond the shifts, you’ll find the beauty of Iowa—from rolling prairies and scenic byways to river towns, Amana Colonies, and the inviting textures of rural and small‑city life that make each day feel connected and meaningful.
Location Benefits: Anamosa sits in a region that provides a balanced, community‑minded lifestyle, with parks, strollable neighborhoods, and local amenities that make day‑to‑day life convenient and enjoyable. The appeal of this location extends to the flexibility of rotating to additional assignments across Iowa and other parts of the U.S., offering you the opportunity to experience different facility cultures, patient populations, and care models while maintaining a stable schedule and guaranteed hours. You’ll benefit from streamlined travel support, housing assistance, and access to a robust network of colleagues ready to help you acclimate quickly to new settings. The work environment values your expertise, supports your professional goals, and respects personal commitments with reliable pay and predictable routines.
Role Specifics and Benefits: In Long‑Term Care, your responsibilities include accurate medication administration, wound and skin care, pain assessment and management, monitoring vital signs, assisting with daily living activities, and implementing individualized care plans in collaboration with RNs and physicians. You’ll document care activities clearly, participate in multi‑disciplinary rounds, and identify conditions requiring escalation. You’ll have opportunities for professional growth within the LTC specialty—pursuing certifications, expanding clinical competencies, and taking on leadership or mentor roles as you demonstrate excellence in practice. This contract emphasizes competitive compensation and tangible support: weekly pay ranging from $554 to $581, a sign‑on bonus, housing assistance, and options for contract extensions to continue your impact where you’re needed most. You’ll receive comprehensive 24/7 support while traveling with the company, including on‑site and remote assistance for scheduling, urgent needs, or guidance, so you can focus on delivering safe, high‑quality care. Our program champions continuity of care, respectful teamwork, and a culture that recognizes the dedication you bring to every shift. You’ll have access to educational resources and clinical mentorship to help you stay current with geriatrics and long‑term care best practices.
Company Values: Our organization is grounded in empowering staff to grow—providing clear pathways for advancement, ongoing training, recognition of accomplishments, and a collaborative, supportive environment. We believe nurses are at the heart of compassionate care, and we invest in your professional development with structured orientation, competency validation, and opportunities to expand into supervisory or educator roles as you demonstrate readiness. You’ll join a team that values integrity, respect, and accountability, where patient‑centered care is the standard and your well‑being matters as much as the residents you serve. Here, your expertise is not only welcomed but essential to elevating the standard of care across diverse settings.
Call to Action: If you’re ready to bring warmth, skill, and a steadfast commitment to quality to an essential field, apply now. Embrace a role that respects your expertise, supports your growth, and offers the chance to make a lasting difference for residents and families across Iowa and beyond.
