Travel Licensed Practical Nurse Long-Term Care Job

Embark on a meaningful journey as a Licensed Practical Nurse specializing in Long-Term Care, with a rewarding travel assignment in Vernon, Vermont. This is your opportunity to blend clinical expertise with compassionate mentorship, empowering residents to maintain dignity, comfort, and independence in the later chapters of their lives. As you bring skilled hands and a steady presence to daily routines—from medication administration and wound care to comprehensive assessments and individualized care plans—you’ll see the tangible differences your dedication makes. Vermont’s serene landscapes—rolling meadows, forested trails, and the quintessential fall palette of amber and gold—provide a refreshing backdrop to your demanding but deeply rewarding work. In this state of clean air, friendly communities, and a strong sense of local pride, you’ll also have moments to unwind by tranquil lakes, explore scenic byways, and discover charming towns with farmer’s markets, crisp apples, and iconic Vermont maple treats. Vernon, a tight-knit community with easy access to outdoor recreation, offers a supportive environment where your clinical leadership and bedside skills are valued, and where every shift can end with a sense of purpose and renewed energy for tomorrow’s care.

Location benefits extend beyond Vernon’s welcoming footprint. This travel opportunity also opens doors to working in various locations across the United States, allowing you to experience diverse care settings, from resource-rich facilities in smaller towns to dynamic centers in bustling regions. You’ll gain exposure to evolving care models, interdisciplinary teamwork, and a spectrum of resident needs, all while maintaining the stability and security of a travel assignment. Vermont itself presents a unique blend of scenic tranquility and community-oriented living, with easy access to outdoor adventures, robust local healthcare networks, and a supportive state framework that prioritizes resident well-being. The chance to travel comes with the flexibility to design a schedule that honors your personal and professional goals, while still delivering meaningful continuity of care for residents across different facilities. This is more than a job—it's a chance to grow your professional footprint and to diversify your clinical experience in a way that broadens your perspective and enriches your practice.

In this role, you’ll be at the heart of care delivery. Core responsibilities include bedside patient assessments, support with activity of daily living, safe administration of medications, monitoring of vital signs, and early recognition of clinical changes to escalate care promptly. You’ll participate in plan-of-care development with the interdisciplinary team, contributing to infection control, fall prevention, and rehabilitation strategies that optimize resident function and comfort. You will guide and mentor nursing assistants, document clearly in electronic health records, and ensure compliance with regulatory standards. The position offers professional growth opportunities within the Long-Term Care specialty, including expanded clinical responsibilities, leadership development, and pathways to further certifications. You’ll benefit from a competitive compensation package with a weekly pay range of $1,758-$1,814, reflecting the value you bring to patient care. The assignment includes access to housing assistance, and options to extend your contract, enabling sustained impact in facilities that rely on your expertise. Comprehensive support is available around the clock, including 24/7 assistance as you travel with the company, ensuring you have a reliable safety net for staffing challenges, credentialing needs, or housing logistics. Start dates are aligned with facility onboarding, and flexible durations allow you to tailor assignments to your professional calendar and personal commitments.

Our company is built on a foundation of empowering staff through continued education, mentorship, and a culture of respect, integrity, and teamwork. We believe great care starts with great people, and we are committed to helping you advance your career while maintaining a supportive and balanced work environment. You’ll join a network of clinicians who celebrate clinical excellence, share best practices, and celebrate milestones together, reinforcing a sense of belonging even as you rotate through different locations. We emphasize open communication, constructive feedback, and opportunities to lead initiatives that improve resident outcomes and the efficiency of care delivery. This is a place where your ideas matter, your clinical judgment is respected, and your professional development is actively nurtured through formal training, on-site coaching, and access to resources that help you refine your practice.
