Your leadership will shine as you mentor CNAs and new staff, reinforce evidence‑based practices, and contribute to a collaborative care environment. The position emphasizes opportunities for professional growth within the long‑term care specialty, with pathways to expand into clinical educator roles, charge or team lead responsibilities, and enhanced care coordination with nursing leadership. We offer a compelling benefits package that includes a competitive sign‑on bonus, housing assistance to ease relocation or temporary housing needs, and clear extension opportunities to continue your contract when the facility’s needs align with your goals.

You’ll have 24/7 support from traveling coordinators and clinical supervisors who are dedicated to your success, ensuring you’re never alone on assignment. If you encounter a complex case, you can rely on accessible resources, rapid escalation pathways, and a network of colleagues who share your commitment to compassionate, patient‑centered care.
