Travel Licensed Practical Nurse Long-Term Care Job

Embark on a rewarding journey as a Licensed Practical Nurse in Long-Term Care, where your clinical skill and compassionate care directly enhance the lives of residents who depend on steady hands and steady hearts. This travel assignment places you in Mendham, New Jersey, a coach of comfort and community, offering you an opportunity to lead with expertise in a setting that values dignity, autonomy, and well‑being for every resident. Imagine the meaningful connections you’ll forge, the daily routines you’ll support, and the confidence you’ll help restore—one resident at a time. Your work will blend clinical precision with heartfelt, person‑centered care, making a tangible difference in a population that matters deeply. And while Mendham offers its own unique charm—historic charm, scenic byways, serene neighborhoods—the broader state and country open doors to additional locations as you grow, learn, and explore the possibilities of travel nursing. The start date for this assignment is 11/12/2025, and it runs for multiple weeks with guaranteed 40 hours per week, delivering stability alongside the adventure of travel.

Location Benefits: Mendham, NJ, sits in a region known for its verdant landscapes, quiet residential streets, and a sense of timeless Americana. Working here combines the comfort of a close‑knit community with the convenience of access to metropolitan hubs within a reasonable drive. You’ll enjoy a supportive, safe environment for you and your patients, with opportunities to explore nearby parks, historic towns, and seasonal events that showcase New Jersey’s natural beauty and cultural richness. For those drawn to variety, our program provides the chance to work across diverse locations in the United States—expanding your professional portfolio while you discover new communities, facilities, and patient populations. The balance of suburban ease, cultural amenities, and travel variety makes this opportunity appealing for clinicians who value both meaningful patient care and a dynamic life outside the workplace.

Role Specifics and Benefits: In this Long-Term Care LPN role, you’ll deliver high‑quality, resident‑centered care under the guidance of experienced RNs and physicians. Core responsibilities include administering medications and treatments with accuracy, monitoring vital signs and changes in condition, assisting with activities of daily living, wound care and dressing changes, catheter and ostomy care when indicated, and contributing to every resident’s individualized care plan. You’ll document assessments, updates, and outcomes clearly, communicating promptly with the broader health care team to adjust care as needed. You’ll also engage in resident education, foster mobility and safety, assist with discharge planning, and participate in family conferences to address questions and concerns. Beyond day-to-day duties, this position offers substantial opportunities for professional growth within the LTC specialty—whether you’re pursuing enhanced knowledge in geriatric syndromes, pain management, wound healing, infection control, or palliative and end‑of‑life care. You’ll have access to structured orientation, ongoing clinical mentorship, and pathways that recognize and cultivate your leadership potential.

Our compensation package is designed to be competitive and supportive. The position offers a weekly pay range of $1,195–$1,260, reflecting your experience and responsibilities, with guaranteed 40 hours per week. In addition to base pay, you may qualify for a sign‑on or completion bonus, designed to acknowledge your commitment and performance. Housing assistance is provided to ease the logistics of travel and relocation, ensuring you can focus on delivering exceptional care rather than the logistics of lodging. There are extension opportunities built into the program so you can continue your essential work with trusted teams, deepen clinical competencies, and build lasting professional relationships. To supplement your experience, you’ll receive comprehensive travel support and access to 24/7 assistance from a dedicated travel team—throughout your assignment and any transitions between locations. You’ll be backed by ongoing education options and clinical resources to help you stay current with best practices in long‑term care and geriatrics, enabling you to pursue career advancement without sacrificing the quality of patient care you provide.

Company Values: Our organization is rooted in empowering staff to grow, belong, and lead with confidence. We champion a culture of respect, collaboration, and continuous improvement, where every nurse’s insights influence patient outcomes and care protocols. We place a premium on a supportive work environment that encourages professional development, recognizes achievement, and offers mentorship and guidance. You’ll find a community that values your contributions, provides transparent pathways for advancement, and supports you as you navigate the challenges and rewards of LTC nursing. The emphasis is on helping you reach your career goals while maintaining a healthy balance between professional responsibilities and personal well‑being.
