About The Position

Embark on a meaningful journey as a Registered Nurse specializing in Long-Term Care in Petoskey, Michigan, where every patient interaction is an opportunity to affirm dignity, comfort, and continuity of care. This LTC assignment invites you to bring clinical excellence, compassionate communication, and collaborative leadership to a dedicated care team that champions person-centered planning and holistic wellbeing. Beginning February 9, 2026, for multiweek engagement, you’ll enjoy a guaranteed 36 hours per week with a competitive weekly pay range of $1,774 to $1,872, reflecting the value you bring to residents and families. This role is more than a clock-in clock-out job; it’s a chance to influence quality of life, mentor colleagues, and grow within a nationally supported network that respects your expertise and aspirations. Nestled on Michigan’s scenic shores, Petoskey is a gateway to the natural beauty of northern Michigan. Picture mornings with crisp lake breezes, afternoons hiking or kayaking along pristine trails, and evenings tucked into a close-knit community known for its charm, cultural events, and a pace that invites thoughtful, unrushed care. The state’s landscapes—lakes, forests, and vibrant small towns—offer restorative experiences after meaningful days at work, helping you maintain balance between caregiving and personal renewal. Beyond Petoskey, the opportunity to work in other locations across the United States opens doors to new landscapes, clinics, and senior living communities, enriching your professional perspective while preserving the continuity of excellent patient care you deliver. Location benefits go beyond scenery. Michigan’s LTC landscape values highly skilled nurses who can lead residency programs, reinforce infection control, and champion quality improvement initiatives in collaboration with physicians, social workers, and therapy teams. In addition to the unique appeal of Petoskey, our program provides the flexibility to place you in diverse settings nationwide, enabling exposure to different care models, regulatory environments, and population needs. You’ll have access to comprehensive onboarding, modern facilities, and resources designed to support both clinical excellence and personal growth. Whether you’re caring for residents with complex chronic conditions, wound care needs, or palliative goals, you’ll find the support you need to deliver compassionate, evidence-based care that aligns with best practices and your professional standards. Role specifics and benefits are designed to empower you to excel and advance. Core responsibilities include conducting comprehensive assessments, administering medications, implementing and updating care plans, and coordinating with interdisciplinary teams to ensure safety, comfort, and dignity for every resident. You’ll engage in routine and focused assessments, monitor vital signs, assist with activities of daily living, manage acute changes, and support transitional care when residents move between levels of service. Emphasis on wound care, infection prevention, fall prevention, and sedation safety will be complemented by mentorship and opportunities for specialty training within geriatrics and LTC pathways. The role also invites leadership in chart reviews, quality improvement projects, and family education, reinforcing your capacity to influence outcomes and guide junior staff. A robust benefits package accompanies your clinical duties. In addition to competitive compensation, you may qualify for a sign-on or completion bonus, housing assistance to ease relocation or lodging needs, and extension opportunities that allow you to extend or repeat assignments as your career goals evolve. You’ll be part of a program that prioritizes continuity of care without sacrificing flexibility, enabling you to explore new communities while keeping a stable, predictable schedule. The arrangement emphasizes stability with guaranteed hours and transparency in compensation, so you can plan ahead, invest in ongoing education, and pursue specialty certifications relevant to LTC practice.
