About The Position

Step into a meaningful journey as a Licensed Practical Nurse in Utica, New York, with a starting assignment on 04/06/2026. This opportunity puts you at the forefront of patient care, where every shift is a chance to impact lives, build trust, and refine your skills across inpatient units, long-term care, and community settings. As an LPN, you’ll monitor patients, administer medications under supervision, perform routine assessments, support families, and collaborate with physicians and RNs to implement care plans. You’ll be part of a nationwide network committed to elevating everyday nursing through hands-on practice, ongoing education, and a culture that values compassion as much as competence. And because New York’s upstate beauty is part of the job description, think of your work weeks punctuated by strolls along Mohawk River trails, fall foliage in the valley, and nearby outdoor escapes that remind you why service matters. Utica offers an inviting mix of affordability, community feel, and access to larger hubs when needed. You’ll enjoy a supportive local healthcare market with diverse patient populations, opportunities to collaborate across departments, and access to extended day and night shifts that align with your life. For those who love variety, this role also provides flexibility to work in additional locations across the United States, enabling you to explore different facilities, cultures, and clinical settings while building a robust resume. Whether you’re drawn to the Mohawk Valley’s historic downtown, the ease of weekend getaways to the Adirondacks, or the scenic drives to Finger Lakes wineries, the region offers balance and inspiration that can enhance your clinical practice. Core responsibilities include implementing and evaluating nursing care plans, administering medications and treatments with accuracy, performing vital sign checks, wound care, patient education, and assisting with activities of daily living. You’ll monitor for changes in condition, document thoroughly, and communicate clearly with the broader care team. This role provides a clear path for growth within the LPN scope and beyond, with opportunities to advance into lead or specialized support roles, participate in clinical education sessions, and expand your scope through cross-training. Competitive benefits include a signing bonus and housing assistance to ease relocation, plus extension opportunities on contract to suit your career trajectory. Our program emphasizes comprehensive support, including a dedicated liaison for scheduling and a 24/7 help desk that travels with you as you move between assignments. While you’ll be remote from home at times, you’ll never be isolated—the support network is designed to respond quickly to needs on shift, on site, or en route to your next setting. At the heart of our organization is a commitment to empower staff, recognize expertise, and foster a culture of learning and collaboration. We believe in transparent career pathways, constructive feedback, and a workplace where your professional development is as important as patient outcomes. From onboarding to ongoing mentoring and performance coaching, we invest in nurses who want to lead with empathy and evidence-based practice. We celebrate diversity, integrity, and a shared mission to elevate the standard of care while maintaining a supportive, respectful environment where every voice matters.
