Travel Licensed Practical Nurse Long-Term Care Job

Embark on a meaningful journey as a Licensed Practical Nurse in Long-Term Care in Fairmont, West Virginia, where your compassion and clinical expertise directly shape the quality of life for aging adults. This weeks-long assignment begins on February 19, 2026, offering 36 guaranteed hours per week with a competitive weekly pay range of $962 to $1,026. You’ll step into a facility that values dignity, comfort, and collaborative care, where your hands-on nursing skills meet the everyday realities of long-term residents. If you’re drawn to close-knit teams, steady routines, and the chance to build lasting relationships, this role is crafted for you. In addition to your impact on patients, you’ll also have the opportunity to explore the beauty and character of West Virginia, from the rolling Alleghenies to vibrant small towns and historic sites.

Working in Fairmont means access to a supportive community environment and a gateway to broader opportunities. West Virginia’s landscapes invite outdoor living—hiking, scenic drives through the Allegheny foothills, fall foliage, and nearby state parks. For those who crave variety, this travel assignment can also open doors to placements across the United States, offering diverse facility settings, seasoned care teams, and new professional challenges that sharpen your clinical instincts and leadership abilities.

As an LPN in Long-Term Care, you’ll deliver essential patient-centered care under the supervision of RNs and physicians. Core responsibilities include administering medications according to scope of practice and facility policy, monitoring residents’ vital signs and health status, assessing changes in conditions, delivering wound care and preventive skin management, assisting with activities of daily living, supporting care planning and implementation, documenting accurately in EMRs, and communicating effectively with families and the broader care team. You’ll participate in care rounds, contribute to falls prevention and infection control efforts, and ensure safety and comfort across shifts. This assignment includes a strong emphasis on professional growth: you’ll refine geriatric assessment skills, learn facility-specific protocols, and gain exposure to multidisciplinary planning that informs transitions of care. The position also provides enhanced development through optional on-site or virtual trainings, leadership opportunities, and the chance to expand your scope with additional responsibilities as you demonstrate reliability and clinical judgment.

Benefits for this assignment go beyond a competitive wage. In addition to a weekly pay range of $962-$1,026 and 36 guaranteed hours, there is a potential bonus tied to performance and tenure, housing assistance to ease the logistics of relocation or travel, and extension opportunities to prolong your contract if you enjoy the environment and leadership. You’ll receive comprehensive support from a dedicated travel team that is available 24/7—before, during, and after each shift—to coordinate housing, licensing, itinerary, and any on-site needs. Our approach is designed to minimize stress so you can focus on patient care and your professional goals.

Our company is rooted in empowering staff through career advancement, mentorship, and a collaborative culture. We believe every nurse brings unique strengths, and we’re committed to helping you translate those strengths into ongoing growth—whether you’re pursuing specialty certifications, leadership tracks, or enhanced clinical responsibilities within long-term care. You’ll join a community that celebrates your contributions, values your well-being, and supports your journey with transparent communication, reliable scheduling, and a respectful, inclusive work environment.
