Step into a deeply rewarding journey as a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) in Watertown, New York, and discover how your clinical compassion, meticulous skill, and dedication to patient comfort can illuminate every day on the job. In this LPN specialty role, you will partner with dedicated clinicians to provide essential day-to-day care, helping patients manage symptoms, preserve dignity, and navigate pathways toward recovery. Your expertise will anchor patient comfort, reinforce safety protocols, and support families during challenging times. Imagine the impact you can make as you guide care plans through routine tasks, careful monitoring, and timely communication with the broader care team. This opportunity not only advances your clinical experience, it invites you to contribute to outcomes that matter deeply in the lives of real people. And for librarians of landscape and lifestyle, New York offers a diverse backdrop to your professional story—from the fall colors and serene upstate vistas to vibrant small towns with thriving communities. The state’s beauty isn’t just scenery; it energizes your daily rhythm and enriches the human connections you’ll forge with patients and colleagues.

Watertown, perched along the Grasse River in the northern part of the Empire State, combines a welcoming community spirit with modern healthcare facilities that value patient-centered care. You’ll enjoy a supportive, collaborative work environment where skilled teams blend continuity of care with innovative practices. The region offers a balance of small-town warmth and accessible amenities, alongside proximity to natural settings, cultural events, and recreational outlets that enrich your off hours. Beyond Watertown, this role also opens doors to opportunities across select locations in the United States, giving you the flexibility to expand your clinical horizons while maintaining the security of guaranteed hours. Whether you remain in Watertown for the assignment or explore other communities through the same program, you’ll gain exposure to diverse patient populations, settings, and care delivery models that sharpen your clinical judgment and adaptability.

This contract focuses on your growth within the LPN specialty. You’ll perform routine nursing tasks under supervision, including monitoring vital signs, assisting with activities of daily living, administering select medications as permitted by state law and facility policy, collecting routine specimens, and documenting care accurately in patient records. You’ll contribute to care plans, reinforce patient education on medications and discharge instructions, and escalate concerns promptly to the supervising registered nurse or physician. You’ll build confidence in recognizing subtle changes in patient status and in communicating urgent needs with clarity and compassion. The role is designed to broaden your medication administration experience, refine your assessment skills, and deepen your teamwork abilities as you collaborate with nurses, physicians, therapists, and support staff. The position also offers extension opportunities and pathways to additional responsibilities as you demonstrate reliability, judgment, and a steadfast commitment to patient safety and comfort.

Compelling benefits accompany this LPN assignment. You’ll receive competitive compensation with weekly pay ranging between $1,373 and $1,406, reflecting the value you bring to the care team. The package includes housing assistance to ease relocation or travel logistics, so you can focus on delivering outstanding patient care without financial distractions. A completion bonus may be available, recognizing your successful dedication to the assignment and your professional discipline. In addition, there are extension opportunities so you can continue your trajectory in a familiar environment or explore new settings within the network. You’ll never be alone on the road—you’ll have 24/7 support from our dedicated traveling team, ensuring you have reliable assistance, guidance, and resources whenever you need them while you’re traveling for assignments.

Our company is built on a clear purpose: empower our nurses to grow while delivering compassionate, high-quality care. We foster a supportive work environment where your professional development is prioritized, your questions are welcomed, and your achievements are celebrated. You’ll have access to ongoing education, mentorship, and opportunities to advance within the LPN track or broaden your experience through cross-specialty exposure. The culture is collaborative, transparent, and focused on sustained well-being for staff—because we know that when you feel supported, you can elevate patient outcomes, contribute with confidence, and inspire your teammates.
