Licensed Practical Nurse

Nexus Recovery – Chelmsford, MA
· Full-time, part-time, or per diem
· Days, evenings, and overnights available

Nexus Recovery is a substance use disorder treatment program in Chelmsford, Massachusetts, licensed by the Massachusetts Bureau of Substance Addiction Services (BSAS). We provide Acute Treatment Services (ATS/detox) and Clinical Stabilization Services (CSS), 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Most of the people who come through our doors are covered by Mass Health, and too often that has meant being told there is no bed, no time, or no one available. We are building a top-tier clinical program for exactly those people — the kind of care you would want for your own family, offered to the people who usually get the least of it.

If that is the work you want to be doing, we would like to meet you.
