This week-to-week assignment opens on 12/11/2025, inviting you to bring your clinical skill to Silver City, New Mexico, and to grow within a dynamic LT Care specialty that prizes compassionate, patient-centered care. You’ll have the chance to mentor, support families, and partner with an experienced interdisciplinary team to create care plans that honor independence while ensuring safety. Imagine the impact you can make through meticulous assessment, responsive symptom management, and a warm, reassuring presence that helps residents thrive even as they navigate chronic conditions.
