This travel assignment places you in Lincoln, Nebraska, a city that blends Midwestern warmth with modern amenities, inviting you to grow professionally while making a meaningful impact in the lives of elders and adults with chronic conditions. You will apply your clinical skills with autonomy under appropriate supervision, build trusted relationships with residents and families, and collaborate with an attentive interprofessional team to coordinate care that preserves independence and quality of life. Beyond the patient rooms, Nebraska’s open skies and inviting communities welcome travelers, with opportunities to explore parks, trails, and cultural events on weekends. The Platte River valley, prairie sunsets, and Lincoln’s vibrant arts and dining scene create a backdrop that inspires your practice while you expand across diverse long-term care settings. This assignment is designed to challenge you, reward your dedication, and open doors to ongoing growth within the LTC specialty, all while you’re supported by a network that values your expertise and well-being.

Location Benefits
Lincoln’s appeal lies in its approachable pace, affordable housing, and strong sense of community. As a traveler, you’ll enjoy stable access to quality healthcare facilities and the chance to engage with residents who value compassionate care. The program also offers the possibility of assignments in other Nebraska communities and, periodically, across the U.S., exposing you to varied care models, regulatory environments, and resident populations. Benefits extend beyond competitive compensation to include housing assistance, relocation support, and streamlined lodging options designed for travelers. Weekly pay ranges from $1,333 to $1,383, with flexible contracted weeks and the potential to extend engagements based on performance and facility needs.

Responsibilities include administering medications and treatments under licensed supervision, monitoring residents forChanges, assessing pain, managing wounds, and providing routine and complex tasks such as diabetic care, oxygen support, and catheter care. You’ll assist with daily living activities to promote independence, chart accurately, and communicate changes to the interdisciplinary team to inform care planning and goal setting. You’ll also mentor newer staff, participate in infection control and safety initiatives, and support family education. The role offers clear pathways for growth within the LTC specialty: expand scope, assume leadership on shifts, become a mentor, or pursue additional certifications with employer support. Competitive benefits include a potential sign-on bonus, housing assistance, and extension opportunities to continue working with trusted teams.
