Travel Licensed Practical Nurse Long-Term Care Job
Albuquerque, NM
Contracted
Rhb Ctr of Albuquerq
Mid Level
Step into a purpose-driven role as a Licensed Practical Nurse, specializing in Long-Term Care, where every shift offers the chance to touch lives and foster comfort, dignity, and independence for residents in need. Based in Albuquerque, New Mexico, this weeks-long opportunity begins on 03/01/2026 and brings with it a guaranteed 36 hours per week along with a competitive weekly pay range of $885 to $935. You’ll join a dedicated care team focused on individualized plans, steady progression, and the steady reassurance that comes from consistent, compassionate support. In this setting, your hands-on expertise will translate into meaningful improvements in daily living, symptom management, and overall well-being for residents who rely on steady, trusted care.
This role places you at the heart of Long-Term Care, where the day-to-day responsibilities are varied and deeply purposeful. You’ll perform comprehensive assessments, monitor chronic conditions, administer medications, and implement and adjust individualized care plans in collaboration with RNs, physicians, therapists, and a skilled team of CNAs. You’ll document meticulously, communicate clearly with families about care goals and progress, and uphold the highest standards of safety and infection control. The opportunity for growth is built into the assignment: you’ll expand your expertise in geriatric assessment, palliative approaches, wound care, and care coordination, while developing leadership and mentoring skills as you work with a diverse patient population. A supportive, appreciative culture is central to every shift, with resources and training designed to elevate your clinical practice and confidence.
Albuquerque and the Land of Enchantment offer a compelling backdrop for your professional journey. Beyond the clinic walls, you’ll experience a city with a vibrant cultural scene, outdoor adventures, and a quality of life that lures professionals and families alike. Sunny days, mild winters, and easy access to the Sandia Mountains invite hiking, biking, and scenic drives. Albuquerque’s historic Old Town, museums, cuisine, and a thriving local economy create a well-rounded living environment. The region also makes it possible to plan weekend escapes to nearby treasures—from the natural beauty of the Bosque del Apache and the Rio Grande valley to day trips to desert landscapes and mountain trails. For flexible travel within the U.S., the role also offers opportunities to work in other locations, expanding your professional network and enriching your clinical repertoire while maintaining the stability and support you value.
Role specifics come with a robust benefits package that acknowledges your contributions. You’ll have access to a competitive bonus program, plus housing assistance to ease relocation or temporary housing needs. The contract is designed with extension opportunities in mind, so you can build continuity in your practice and deepen your specialization in Long-Term Care. As you travel with the company, you’ll never be alone: 24/7 support is available to you, ensuring guidance, resources, and problem-solving are always at your fingertips whenever you need them. This comprehensive support network is intended to reduce stress, boost confidence, and keep you focused on delivering the highest standard of care.
Our company values your growth and well-being. We are committed to empowering you with clear pathways for career advancement, ongoing education, and a collaborative, respectful work environment where your voice is heard. You’ll be part of a team that celebrates clinician resilience, respects cultural diversity, and pursues excellence in patient outcomes. The emphasis is on long-term relationships—between colleagues, between families, and between you and the residents you serve—so that every assignment becomes a stepping-stone toward greater clinical mastery and personal fulfillment.
