Travel Licensed Practical Nurse Long-Term Care Job

Take the next step in your nursing career as a Licensed Practical Nurse in Long-Term Care, where compassionate care meets opportunity. This travel-ready role is designed for LPNs who want to make a tangible difference in residents’ daily lives while exploring diverse communities across North Carolina, Washington, and beyond. Beginning December 6, 2025, you’ll embark on a series of short-term assignments spanning several weeks, each designed to deepen your clinical skills, broaden your professional network, and reinforce your commitment to dignity and quality of life for seniors. In this setting, your daily patient interactions—from medication administration under supervision to caring for wounds, mobility support, and daily living activities—will contribute directly to comfort, independence, and safety. You’ll work within interdisciplinary teams that value clear communication, evidence-based practice, and gentle advocacy, and you’ll have opportunities to lead care planning sessions, mentor new staff, and participate in quality improvement initiatives that raise the standard of care in long-term care facilities.

Location benefits: North Carolina and Washington offer a blend of warmth, natural beauty, and robust healthcare communities. North Carolina welcomes you with scenic mountains, lakes, coastal towns, and a friendly, family-oriented pace that makes it easy to settle in between shifts. Washington provides lush landscapes, thriving metro areas, and access to outdoor recreation—from Puget Sound to the Cascades. For clinicians who enjoy variety, there’s also the potential to rotate through additional locations across the U.S., exposing you to different facility cultures, patient populations, and practice patterns. This mobility can expand your professional network and enrich your LTC toolkit, all while you build a portable résumé that showcases your adaptability and clinical excellence. You’ll also have the chance to discover the distinct charms of each region—the quiet mountain views, the vibrant city life, and the rich history that shapes exceptional senior care.

Role specifics and benefits: As an LPN in Long-Term Care, you’ll perform essential nursing duties under the supervision of a registered nurse or physician, including medication administration, resident assessments, wound care, tubing and device monitoring, charting, and timely reporting of changes in condition. You’ll implement and adjust care plans in collaboration with the care team, support daily living activities, and facilitate rehabilitation and fall-prevention strategies. The role offers clear paths for growth—specialized wound care, pain management, dementia-care strategies, and leadership opportunities within unit teams. Competitive compensation is paired with attractive benefits: a weekly pay range of $1,299 to $1,355, potential bonuses, housing assistance, and opportunities for contract extensions. While guaranteed hours aren’t fixed, assignments are designed to provide consistent engagement aligned with facility needs and your availability. The program emphasizes comprehensive support—onboarding, credentialing help, travel logistics, and a dedicated 24/7 support team to assist you while traveling with the company.

Company values: Our organization is built on empowerment, respect, and collaboration. We’re committed to supporting your career advancement and creating a safe, inclusive, and engaging work environment where your insights are valued and your professional development is a priority. You’ll find mentors, ongoing education resources, and structured paths to broaden your scope of practice as you grow in LTC—from bedside nursing to leadership and quality improvement roles. Travel assignments can be rewarding and demanding, so we invest in you with practical benefits and a community that’s there for you every step of the way.
