Step into a mission-driven role as a Licensed Practical Nurse in Long-Term Care, anchored in the welcoming community of Waterville, Maine. This contract invites you to deliver compassionate, skilled care that focuses on comfort, dignity, and quality of life for residents who deserve thoughtful, patient-centered support every day. In addition to the meaningful work, you’ll have the chance to enjoy Maine’s natural beauty—the scenic Kennebec River, vibrant fall foliage, nearby lakes and trails, and a pace of life that blends small-town charm with access to cultural and outdoor experiences. This is your opportunity to make a tangible difference while you grow your clinical expertise in long-term care, collaborating with a dedicated interdisciplinary team that values your judgment, empathy, and leadership potential. The role is designed to start on December 1, 2025, with an engaging schedule that balances professional commitments with personal time in a state famed for its strong sense of community and striking landscapes.

Location Benefits: Waterville sits in the heart of Maine, offering a friendly, neighborly atmosphere, affordable living, and easy access to outdoor adventures—from scenic river walks and nearby lakes to crisp winter activities and picturesque drives through classic New England countryside. You’ll be part of a healthcare network that emphasizes supportive relationships with residents, families, and colleagues, fostering a sense of purpose every shift. For professionals seeking broader horizons, there is also the opportunity to work across various locations in the United States, gaining exposure to diverse care settings, patient populations, and operational environments. When you’re not delivering essential day-to-day care, you can explore Maine’s coastal towns, farmers’ markets, and regional arts scenes, all while enjoying the security of a robust, nationwide support system designed to keep you connected, informed, and confident as you travel.

Role Specifics and Benefits: As an LPN in Long-Term Care, you will provide hands-on nursing care tailored to residents’ changing needs. Your responsibilities will include administering medications and treatments under protocol, performing routine assessments, monitoring vital signs, coordinating with registered nurses and physicians on care plans, and supporting activities of daily living to promote comfort and independence. You’ll document observations, report changes promptly, assist with wound and diabetic care, manage routine procedures, and participate in care planning that emphasizes safety, nutrition, mobility, and quality of life. This role also offers professional growth within long-term care, with opportunities to expand your skill set into areas like geriatric assessment, wound care coordination, infection control practices, and patient education. You’ll be part of a team committed to continuous learning, quality improvement, and evidence-based practice.

Compensation and logistics are designed to reflect your value. The weekly pay ranges from $1,143 to $1,231, with guaranteed hours of 40 per week, supporting financial stability and predictable scheduling. The contract duration is measured in weeks, with potential extension opportunities based on performance, staffing needs, and your own career goals. A standout package also includes a bonus opportunity, comprehensive housing assistance to ease relocation or temporary housing challenges, and options for contract extensions to maximize continuity of care for residents and consistency for you. Throughout your travels, you’ll have access to 24/7 support from the company, ensuring you’re never alone when navigating shifts, transportation, housing logistics, or clinical questions. Please note: hours and pay rates are estimates and may vary; final compensation packages and guaranteed hours will be confirmed during the hiring process.
