Job DescriptionEmbark on a rewarding journey as a Licensed Practical Nurse specializing in Long-Term Care in Middlebury, Vermont, where every shift offers the chance to touch lives, foster dignity, and create comfort for residents and their families. This opportunity blends compassionate, hands-on care with professional growth in a serene New England setting known for its vibrant community spirit, historic charm, and true seasonal beauty. Picture tranquil winter mornings in Vermont and the glow of fall foliage painting the hills; Middlebury’s rolling landscapes, quaint downtown, and access to outdoor recreation provide a backdrop that nourishes both professional focus and personal well-being. Across Vermont and beyond, this role invites you to bring stability, skill, and heart to residents who rely on capable, considerate care every day.

Location Benefits: Middlebury stands out as a welcoming hub with strong healthcare networks, collaborative teams, and opportunities to immerse yourself in a tight-knit community. You’ll experience the advantages of rural Vermont living—lower noise, easier navigation, and close-knit neighborhoods—while enjoying access to excellent amenities, schools, and cultural events. For those seeking broader exposure, this contract can serve as a gateway to work across various locations in the United States, offering a diverse slate of long-term care settings—from community-based facilities to larger regional centers. This blend of local belonging and regional mobility means you get the best of both worlds: a peaceful home base with the adventure of new assignments, ensuring you grow your clinical repertoire, adapt to different care models, and expand your professional network. The Vermont experience also includes seasonal outdoor activities, farmers’ markets, scenic drives, and a sense of seasonal rhythm that supports sustainable work-life balance.

Role Specifics and Benefits:
- Role responsibilities: As an LPN in Long-Term Care, you’ll provide comprehensive, patient-centered nursing care to residents with chronic and complex conditions. Core duties include routine direct patient care, medication administration under protocol, accurate documentation, daily assessments, and timely reporting of changes in condition to supervising RNs. You’ll assist with activities of daily living, participate in care planning discussions, support wound quality care and skin integrity, monitor vitals, manage infection control practices, and implement safety measures to prevent falls. You’ll collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to ensure seamless transitions, coordinate discharge planning when appropriate, and advocate for residents’ preferences and comfort. Your empathetic communication will help families understand care plans and deliver reassuring updates that honor residents’ dignity.
- Professional growth: This role offers meaningful opportunities to deepen expertise in geriatric nursing, palliative considerations, and complex chronic disease management. You can expand competencies in medication reconciliation, care coordination, and resident education, while contributing to quality improvement initiatives within the facility. The experience strengthens clinical judgment and adaptability, enabling you to step into leadership responsibilities, mentor newer team members, and gain confidence in navigating diverse long-term care environments.
- Compensation and incentives: This assignment provides competitive weekly pay in the range of $1,739–$1,835, reflecting experience, shift types, and scheduling. While guaranteed hours are not established (0.0), shifts are scheduled to meet resident needs and facility requirements, with pay adjusted accordingly. In addition to competitive pay, benefits include a sign-on or referral bonus where available, housing assistance to minimize living expenses during travel, and the potential for contract extensions should you wish to continue your journey in similar or expanded capacities.
- Support and flexibility: You will have access to 24/7 support from our traveling team, ensuring you’re never alone while on assignment. We provide continuous operational assistance, practical guidance for onboarding, and reliable resources to address any scheduling, licensing, or clinical questions. This support network is designed to reduce administrative burdens and let you focus on compassionate care delivery and resident well-being.
