Meeker offers a welcoming, close-knit community with outdoor access just outside your door—mountain vistas, streams, hiking trails, and seasonal events that celebrate western heritage. When you’re not caring for residents, you can enjoy the fresh air and local charm, all while maintaining a balanced pace.

Key responsibilities include conducting patient assessments, administering medications and treatments per care plans, performing wound care, monitoring vital signs, assisting with activities of daily living, and supporting mobility and fall-prevention strategies. You’ll contribute to updating and implementing individualized care plans, documenting activities in electronic health records, and collaborating with RNs, physicians, therapists, and social services to ensure holistic, person-centered care. This opportunity emphasizes professional growth: deepen geriatric nursing skills, learn advanced wound care, participate in palliative or restorative care initiatives, and pursue certifications that align with your career goals. The package includes a competitive weekly pay range of $1,220 to $1,293, plus a sign-on bonus and housing assistance to ease your transition. You’ll have guaranteed hours of 36 per week and extension opportunities to continue building your expertise with the same or other teams.
