Position: Travel Licensed Practical Nurse Long-Term Care Job

Embark on a transformative journey as a Licensed Practical Nurse specializing in Long-Term Care, where every shift offers the opportunity to make a lasting difference in the lives of residents and their families. This dedicated travel assignment places you in Las Cruces, New Mexico, beginning January 5, 2026, for a multi-week engagement designed to showcase your clinical skill, compassion, and commitment to dignity.

As you weave your expertise into the daily rhythm of long‑term care, you’ll help residents maintain comfort, safety, and quality of life, guiding families with empathy and clarity. Beyond the clinical, you’ll discover a region famed for its sunlit deserts, the dramatic Organ Mountains, and White Sands National Monument—the kind of scenery that recharges the spirit between rewarding shifts. Las Cruces blends southwestern charm with a thriving cultural scene, and the surrounding area invites outdoor exploration, vibrant farmers’ markets, and a warmly welcoming community.

Las Cruces offers affordable living, a mild winter climate, and convenient access to outdoor recreation, from hiking and biking in desert valleys to serene scenic drives through orchards and historic neighborhoods. As a licensed practical nurse traveling with us, you also have the unique opportunity to work in multiple U.S. locations over the course of a single rotation. Each placement expands your professional horizons: you’ll encounter diverse resident populations, care protocols, and interdisciplinary collaboration, enriching your clinical judgment, adaptability, and communication skills.

This versatility not only strengthens your resume but deepens your impact as a caregiver who can meet residents wherever they call home, from intimate rural facilities to larger urban campuses that value person‑first care.

Role specifics and benefits are designed to empower you for growth while recognizing your contribution. Core responsibilities include safe medication administration and accurate documentation, diligent monitoring of vital signs and symptoms, wound care and simple dressings, patient education for disease management, diabetic care coordination, and fall prevention strategies. You’ll assist residents with activities of daily living, support therapy orders under the direction of nursing leadership, and contribute to care planning meetings focused on mobility, nutrition, pain control, and psychosocial well‑being.

Your clinical guidance will help maintain stable baselines for chronic conditions, reduce hospital transfers, and uphold infection control and safety standards. The position also opens doors to professional growth within long‑term care: pursue pathways to lead roles, supervise care teams, mentor new nurses, or gain specialty credentials in wound care, behavioral health support, or care coordination. In addition, you’ll enjoy competitive benefits that recognize the breadth of your skills, including a sign‑on bonus, housing assistance or stipend to simplify a smooth transition, and opportunities to extend your contract to continue serving residents with continuity and care excellence.

We provide extensive support with flexible scheduling, orientation, and access to resources that make travel smooth. You’ll also have 24/7 support while traveling with the company, ensuring you have real‑time assistance for clinical questions, logistics, and any on‑road needs.

Our company values you as a key driver of compassionate care and professional advancement. We are committed to empowering our nursing staff by offering mentorship, ongoing education, and a collaborative work environment where your voice matters. You will join a culture that prioritizes respect, fairness, and a teamwork mindset, with career advancement paths that recognize dedication, skill development, and measurable outcomes in resident well‑being.

We believe that when you grow, residents thrive; when residents thrive, communities grow stronger, and your contribution becomes a cornerstone of that progress. Expect a supportive network that coordinates care across shifts and facilities, provides timely resources, and honors your professional judgments as…
