The town’s pace supports thoughtful, detail-oriented care, allowing you to cultivate strong relationships with residents and their families. You’ll enjoy the practical benefits of a community that prioritizes work–life balance, with accessible amenities, safe neighborhoods, and a supportive network of colleagues. For those who crave broader horizons, this opportunity also offers the flexibility to work in various locations across the United States, expanding your professional exposure to different LTC settings, diverse patient populations, and evolving care paradigms. South Dakota itself is a tapestry of beautiful places—spacious skies, rolling prairie landscapes, and scenic recreational areas.

The combination of a stable base in Woonsocket and the potential for additional assignments across the country means you can savor local community life while broadening your career footprint.

ROLE SPECIFICS AND BENEFITS
As a Long-Term Care LPN, you’ll supervise and support nursing assistants, administer medications and treatments under physician orders, monitor vital signs, observe changes in residents’ conditions, and document care in charts with accuracy and compassion. You’ll assist with activities of daily living, wound care, and skin integrity, and you’ll participate in the development and implementation of individualized care plans that honor dignity, autonomy, and cultural preferences. You’ll collaborate with RNs, physicians, therapists, dietary staff, and social services to ensure holistic, coordinated care. The role offers meaningful opportunities for professional growth within the long-term care specialty, including enhanced assessment skills, leadership development, and the chance to mentor newer team members. The program highlights competitive benefits designed to attract skilled clinicians like you: a weekly pay range of $1,311 to $1,339, plus a comprehensive set of incentives such as a signing or performance bonus, housing assistance, and potential extension opportunities that let you continue contributing where you feel most aligned. You will receive robust support from a dedicated, travel-focused team offering 24/7 assistance—an invaluable resource when you’re navigating assignments across towns or states. Expect structured onboarding, orientation tailored to long-term care dynamics, and ongoing access to education credits or certifications that strengthen your clinical acumen. While this position is anchored in Woonsocket, the broader program welcomes you to explore multiple locations, gaining exposure to varied facility cultures, electronic health record systems, and resident populations. Note that hours and pay are estimates and can vary by assignment; final compensation will be confirmed during the hiring process. The engagement emphasizes flexibility, enabling extensions based on performance, facility needs, and your personal goals, with a clear pathway from frontline care to more advanced or supervisory roles if you choose to pursue them.
