Step into a pivotal role as a Licensed Practical Nurse in Long-Term Care in Havre, Montana, beginning April 1, 2026. In this assignment you’ll partner with registered nurses, physicians, and a seasoned support team to safeguard comfort, dignity, and independence for residents who deserve compassionate, steady care. You’ll be responsible for administering medications with accuracy and sensitivity, monitoring vital signs and chronic condition management, performing wound care and dressing changes, assisting with daily living activities, promoting nutrition and hydration, and implementing fall-prevention and safety protocols. You’ll participate in care planning, report changes promptly, document clearly in charts, and collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to ensure continuity of care. This role is designed for a practical, hands-on professional who thrives in a geriatric setting, values relationship-building with residents and families, and seeks ongoing growth within long-term care. You’ll have opportunities to develop specialized competencies in dementia and behavioral health support, palliative care principles, and mobility and rehabilitation assistance, all while contributing to a climate of respect, patience, and professional pride. In Havre, you’ll discover a community where your daily work translates into measurable comfort and stability for seniors, and where your experience can form the core of a long, fulfilling career path in healthcare.
Montana’s rugged beauty complements a mission-driven career. Havre sits in a region known for wide open skies, expansive prairie, and a pace of life that invites focus and meaningful connections. The area offers accessible outdoor recreation, from short nature walks along local trails to scenic drives that showcase the Missouri River Breaks and nearby foothills. You’ll have frequent opportunities to recharge in these natural settings after demanding shifts, maintaining balance between professional fulfillment and personal well-being. Montana’s seasonal transitions bring variety to your days, from crisp autumns to tranquil winters, while the state’s hospitality and small-town charm create a supportive backdrop for your nursing practice. The town itself fosters a close-knit, collaborative environment where staff know residents by name, families feel seen, and teamwork is a daily standard. In addition to Havre’s local rhythm, the program offers the chance to work in diverse locations across the United States, exposing you to different facilities, resident populations, and care models. This breadth of experience can accelerate your clinical proficiency, broaden your professional network, and enrich your understanding of long-term care across cultural and geographic contexts.
Location benefits go beyond the bedside. Havre presents a welcoming community with easier access to a focused team that values consistent, person-centered care and open communication. The region’s healthcare infrastructure supports comprehensive nursing practice, from SNF and long-term care facility clinics to rehabilitation services and family-centered care planning. Shorter commutes, potential housing support, and integration with local resources help you establish stability while you advance your specialty. For those eager to see more of the country, the program’s nationwide assignments let you explore a range of facilities—from rural community homes to larger centers—without sacrificing the security of a structured schedule and guaranteed hours. Every placement is designed to enhance your clinical judgment, expand your toolkit for geriatric assessment, medication management, and chronic disease monitoring, and empower you to mentor new staff and share best practices with teammates across the care continuum.
Role specifics and benefits are designed to be competitive and supportive. Your responsibilities include administering medications accurately under state regulations, documenting care plans and progress notes, and coordinating with RNs, physicians, pharmacists, and therapy teams to optimize residents’ outcomes. You’ll assist with activities of daily living, mobility, and rehabilitation goals, support nutritional needs, manage scheduled and PRN therapies, and contribute to infection control and safety protocols. The position is structured to encourage professional growth within the Long-Term Care specialty, offering access to continuing education opportunities, on-site mentorship, and leadership development tracks. The compensation package is designed to be competitive and transparent, with a weekly pay range of $1,588 to $1,717 and guaranteed hours of 36 per week, acknowledging the consistent demand for skilled LPNs in long-term care settings. Start date is 04/01/2026, and assignments run for weeks at a time, with extension opportunities that allow you to continue to build seniority and expertise. The program also includes a signing or completion bonus, housing assistance to help you settle in comfortably, and the flexibility to participate in extended contracts if you wish to deepen your impact in this vital field. A dedicated, 24/7 support team is available while you travel with the company, ensuring you have real-time assistance, guidance, and resources wherever your assignment takes you. You’ll receive thorough orientation, access to a robust clinical support network, and dependable administrative support to handle scheduling, credentialing, and regulatory compliance so you can focus on care delivery.
Company values emphasize empowering staff to grow, advance, and thrive within a supportive work environment. The organization is committed to recognizing your contributions, promoting from within, and cultivating a culture of mentorship, collaboration, and professional dignity.
