This role is more than a job—it’s a platform to advance your clinical judgment, mentor teammates, and deepen your expertise in long‑term care.
Albuquerque provides a dynamic base with easy access to New Mexico’s natural beauty and cultural richness. From scenic trails along the Rio Grande to vibrant festivals and heritage sites, you’ll find balance between meaningful work and enriching experiences off duty. The program also offers opportunities to work in additional locations across New Mexico and, where applicable, other sites across the United States.

Core duties include monitoring vital signs, administering medications within scope, wound care, improving mobility and daily living activities, and contributing to comprehensive care plans. You’ll document changes accurately, communicate assessments to the care team, and participate in rounds to align with best practices and quality standards. The position opens doors to professional growth within the long‑term care specialty—enhancing assessment capabilities, refining medication stewardship, advancing care‑planning leadership, and potential mentorship roles for new staff. You’ll benefit from a comprehensive package that includes a bonus, housing assistance, and flexible extension opportunities, ensuring you can plan for the future while sustaining excellent clinical performance. A robust support system is in place: 24/7 assistance for travelers, a dedicated on‑site coordinator, and ongoing access to resources that address clinical questions, scheduling, and housing needs, so you always feel backed by a responsive team.
Our company values staff empowerment, ongoing education, and a culture that supports career advancement within a collaborative, respectful environment. We are committed to your growth as a clinician and as a professional, offering mentorship, skill development, and opportunities to transition into leadership roles or specialty tracks as you accumulate experience. You’ll join a community that celebrates your contributions, prioritizes your well‑being, and provides the tools you need to thrive in fast‑paced, ever‑changing long‑term care settings.
