Job DescriptionStep into a pivotal role as a Licensed Practical Nurse in Long-Term Care, where your expertise and compassion shape the daily lives of residents in South Burlington, Vermont. This opportunity is designed for dedicated professionals who believe in elevating quality of life through attentive, person-centered care. Imagine partnering with families, physicians, and interdisciplinary teams to craft dignified, individualized care plans that honor independence, comfort, and safety. Your day will blend clinical skill with genuine human connection, ensuring that every resident feels seen, respected, and supported as they navigate aging with grace. In Vermont’s serene landscape, your work becomes not just a job but a meaningful calling, with the chance to create positive ripples across the community you serve. And beyond the direct care you provide, you’ll experience a work culture that values your voice, your growth, and your well-being. The beauty of this state—rolling hills, vibrant fall foliage, tranquil lakes, and charming towns—offers a backdrop that refreshes the spirit after a rewarding shift, inviting you to explore and recharge in your downtime.

Vermont’s natural splendor and South Burlington’s welcoming professional scene make this location especially appealing. South Burlington sits near the energy of Burlington’s cultural hub while maintaining a slower, restorative pace ideal for reflection after a meaningful day with residents. You’ll have adjacent access to outdoor adventures, quaint cafés, farmers markets, and community events that celebrate the region’s rich heritage. For those drawn to travel or to gain episode-rich experiences within long-term care settings, there are opportunities to work across various locations in the U.S., expanding your clinical repertoire and professional network while still returning to the comfort of a supportive Vermont base.

Role specifics and benefits come together to create a compelling, growth‑oriented career path. As a Licensed Practical Nurse in Long-Term Care, you’ll assume primary responsibility for direct patient care under the supervision of a registered nurse or physician, including comprehensive assessments, medication administration, wound care, and monitoring of chronic conditions. You’ll contribute to daily living activities, mobility support, and fall prevention strategies, while maintaining meticulous documentation and open communication with residents, families, and care teams. Your clinical judgment will guide care planning, ensuring individualized interventions that reflect each resident’s goals and preferences. You’ll have the chance to develop expertise in geriatric syndromes, palliative approaches, rehabilitation support, and culturally competent care, with opportunities to pursue additional certifications and leadership responsibilities as you demonstrate proficiency and initiative.

The compensation package is designed to attract and retain top talent while rewarding dedication. Expect competitive weekly pay in the range of $1,900 to $2,024, with guaranteed hours at 40 per week, ensuring stability and predictable scheduling. The role offers a bonus structure, housing assistance to ease relocation or temporary housing costs, and potential contract extension opportunities for ongoing collaboration with the company. You’ll benefit from extensive support designed to keep you thriving on the road and at home, including robust 24/7 support while traveling with the company, so you’re never alone when you need guidance or assistance. In addition, you’ll be part of a program that emphasizes professional growth—structured pathways for continuing education, mentorship from experienced clinicians, and the prospect of advancing within the LTC specialty as you demonstrate leadership, clinical excellence, and a compassionate approach to resident care.

Our company is grounded in values that empower staff to advance their careers in a supportive environment. We prioritize open communication, recognition of your expertise, and a culture that treats every team member as essential to delivering quality resident-centered care. You’ll find a collaborative atmosphere where ideas are welcomed, achievements are celebrated, and your professional development is a strategic priority.
