As an LPN in Long‑Term Care, you’ll be pivotal in supporting daily living activities, monitoring resident conditions, administering prescribed medications, performing routine assessments, and documenting changes in care plans with accuracy and timeliness.

Your role includes participating in care planning, pain management, fall prevention, nutrition monitoring, mobility support, and safety compliance, while collaborating with RNs, physicians, therapists, social workers, and family members to anticipate needs and enhance quality of life. This is a prime setting for professional growth in geriatrics, with pathways to advanced certifications, leadership tracks, preceptor opportunities for new staff, and ongoing mentorship from experienced teams.
