This role puts your practical skills to work—medication administration, daily living support, careful assessments, and vigilant observation that informs patient-centered care plans—within a warm, respectful community. Picture yourself delivering compassionate, patient‑centered care that helps older adults maintain autonomy, reduce discomfort, and thrive in an environment that honors their life stories. Based in Grantsboro, North Carolina, you’ll benefit from a coastal region that blends small‑town charm with access to outdoor beauty, historic towns, fresh seafood, and easy drives to water and nature preserves.

North Carolina’s scenic diversity awaits—river and marsh views, easy access to beaches, and a region rich in heritage—providing a balanced backdrop for focused clinical work, meaningful downtime, and outdoor recreation in the shoulder seasons. Grantsboro’s locale provides convenient access to nearby towns and cultural offerings, while your travel‑ready role ensures you’ll be equipped to experience rural charm and urban amenities alike, should you choose to explore other communities during contract extensions.

Role specifics and benefits: In this Long‑Term Care setting, your responsibilities include direct patient care under supervision, medication administration, monitoring vital signs, wound care, ADL assistance, and participation in care plan updates in collaboration with RNs and the broader health team.

The role supports professional growth through skill development, certifications relevant to LTC, and opportunities to assume leadership tasks as you gain experience. You’ll work within a supportive framework that emphasizes evidence‑based practice, patient safety, and continuous quality improvement.
