About the Role

We are seeking dependable, compassionate, and adaptable Registered Nurses (RNs) and Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) to join our regional float nursing team supporting multiple skilled nursing facilities throughout Central Illinois.

Our organization operates several skilled nursing facilities and is looking for nurses who enjoy variety in their work and are willing to travel between locations to provide coverage and support as needed.

This is an excellent opportunity for nurses who enjoy working with different teams, adapting to changing needs, and making a meaningful difference in the lives of residents across multiple communities.

Rather than being assigned exclusively to one building, Regional Float Nurses help fill staffing gaps, support facility operations, assist during periods of increased census or employee absences, and help ensure residents continue to receive quality nursing care.

Key Responsibilities
  • Provide direct nursing care to residents in accordance with their individualized care plans, facility policies, and applicable regulations.

  • Travel between assigned skilled nursing facilities throughout Central Illinois based on operational needs.

  • Provide temporary nursing coverage for scheduled absences, staffing shortages, and other coverage needs.

  • Complete nursing assessments, medication administration, treatments, and documentation within the scope of licensure.

  • Monitor residents for changes in condition and communicate concerns promptly to the appropriate clinical leadership.

  • Collaborate with facility administrators, Directors of Nursing, nursing supervisors, CNAs, and other healthcare professionals.

  • Follow infection prevention protocols, resident safety procedures, and applicable state and federal requirements.

  • Adapt quickly to different facility teams, workflows, and resident care needs.

  • Maintain professional communication and a resident-centered approach at every location.

Qualifications
  • Current, active Illinois RN or LPN license in good standing.

  • Previous experience in a skilled nursing facility, long-term care, rehabilitation, or a similar clinical setting preferred.

  • Strong clinical judgment, communication, organization, and time-management skills.

  • Ability to work independently while collaborating effectively with different facility teams.

  • Reliable transportation and willingness to travel between assigned facilities.

  • Flexibility to work at different locations and adjust to changing staffing needs.

  • Commitment to providing safe, compassionate, high-quality resident care.

Why Join Our Team?
  • Variety in your work: Support multiple facilities and gain experience with different teams and resident populations.

  • Flexible opportunities: Full-time and part-time arrangements may be available.

  • Competitive compensation: Pay based on licensure, experience, and position requirements.

  • Meaningful impact: Help facilities maintain quality care and support residents when nursing coverage is needed most.

  • Regional opportunities: Work across a network of skilled nursing facilities without the need to pursue traditional, out-of-state travel nursing contracts.

  • Supportive leadership: Work with facility and regional leadership teams to coordinate assignments and provide continuity of care.

Who Would Be a Great Fit?

We are looking for nurses who are dependable, adaptable, solution-oriented, and comfortable stepping into different environments. The ideal candidate enjoys helping where they are needed most, works well with new teams, and takes pride in delivering excellent resident care.
