The region offers affordable living, accessible amenities, and a welcoming atmosphere where caregivers form lasting connections with residents and families.

Role Specifics and Benefits
As an LPN in Long-Term Care, you’ll partner with RNs and interdisciplinary teams to deliver high-quality daily care, assist with medication administration, monitor vital signs, execute care plans, and respond adeptly to changes in residents’ conditions. Your responsibilities will include wound assessment, charting, supporting activities of daily living, mobility assistance, and fostering a dignified, comforting environment for residents and their families. The role is designed to nurture professional growth: you’ll refine critical thinking, develop leadership capabilities through care coordination, and expand your scope with ongoing training, certifications, and hands-on mentorship. We offer competitive weekly pay ranging from $1,471 to $1,542, with guaranteed hours at 36 per week for multi-week engagements starting on 01/08/2026.

A dedicated 24/7 support team accompanies you as you travel, providing real-time assistance, guidance on-site, and dependable backup whenever you need it. This comprehensive support structure lets you focus on delivering compassionate care and advancing your clinical skills, rather than navigating logistical hurdles alone.
