You’ll deliver hands‑on nursing care in intimate long‑term care settings, guiding residents toward comfort, dignity, and quality of life. Each shift offers the chance to build trust with residents, families, and a multidisciplinary team, while refining your clinical judgment in geriatric and chronic care.

Vermont’s Newport region provides more than a workplace; it delivers a lifestyle framed by authentic small‑town character, abundant outdoor opportunities, and stunning natural beauty—from green mountains and tranquil lakes to crisp autumn foliage and winter charm that makes every season feel alive.

Newport offers appealing location benefits that blend professional satisfaction with a genuinely enjoyable living environment.

As a traveler, you also have the possibility to work across sites in the U.S., gaining exposure to diverse facility types, patient populations, and care protocols. This variety strengthens your clinical toolbox, broadens your professional network, and enhances your adaptability—key assets in long‑term care.

The combination of Vermont’s scenic backdrop and the chance to explore other regions through our nationwide program creates a compelling balance between career growth and personal fulfillment.

Your core responsibilities will include assessing residents, administering medications and treatments as ordered, monitoring vital signs, and recognizing early changes in condition. You’ll assist with activities of daily living, support nutrition and hydration, promote safe mobility, and participate in care planning with the broader care team. Documentation will be precise and timely, and clear communication with families and physicians will be a hallmark of your role.

As you grow, you’ll have opportunities to deepen expertise in geriatric and long‑term care domains such as wound care, IV therapy, pain management, dementia care, and palliative approaches. Leadership possibilities and mentorship roles may arise, along with continuing education opportunities to advance your clinical capabilities.

Compensation and perks are structured to support your success and well‑being. The assignment offers a competitive weekly pay range of $1,035 to $1,067, reflecting the responsibilities and expertise you bring to the role. A bonus opportunity adds further incentive for exceptional performance, while housing assistance helps ease relocation and daily living as you settle into a new community. Extension opportunities are available, giving you the option to lengthen your assignment if you enjoy the environment and want to continue contributing.

Comprehensive traveler support is a standout feature: 24/7 assistance from a dedicated team while you’re on assignment, plus access to onboarding resources, clinical guidance, safety programs, and ongoing coordination with your recruiting and clinical support staff.

Our company values empowerment, growth, and a supportive work environment. We’re committed to helping you advance your career with clear pathways, mentorship, and access to ongoing education.
