About The Position

Step into a rewarding role as a Registered Nurse specializing in Long-Term Care in Avon, Colorado, beginning 03/30/2026 for a multi‑week assignment designed to impact residents’ lives deeply while advancing your clinical leadership in geriatric care. This is your opportunity to combine compassionate, patient‑centered nursing with the chance to grow within a dynamic LTC team. You’ll guide evidence‑based care plans, monitor changing needs, and partner with families to ensure comfort, dignity, and high quality of life for residents. In this role you’ll influence daily routines, participate in multidisciplinary rounds, and uphold the standards that keep our facilities thriving. While you care for others, you’ll also be supported in your own professional journey, with opportunities to extend your assignment and broaden your scope of practice in the LTC specialty. Colorado’s mountains and alpine vistas provide not just a backdrop, but a source of inspiration as you deliver steady, compassionate care. The state’s diverse communities also offer rich cultural experiences, making your time here as rewarding outside the facility as it is inside it. Colorado’s beauty is undeniable, from sunlit alpine peaks to tranquil aspen groves and cascading rivers. Within Avon you’ll experience easy access to world‑class ski resorts, hiking and biking trails, and a vibrant local culture that celebrates outdoor adventures, arts, and exceptional dining. The area’s year‑round recreational opportunities invite you to unwind after challenging shifts, reconnect with nature, and recharge your energy for the next day’s resident care. If you ever crave broader horizons, the opportunity to work in various locations across the U.S. remains a part of our flexible program, enabling you to broaden your clinical exposure, meet diverse patient populations, and bring new perspectives back to your LTC practice. In this role, anticipate a structured yet autonomous nursing experience that emphasizes growth within the LTC specialty. Core responsibilities include direct bedside care for long‑term care residents, medication administration and reconciliation, wound assessment and care, timely vital sign monitoring, and the administration of routine and urgent treatments under physician orders. You’ll perform comprehensive assessments, contribute to individualized care plans, and document precisely in electronic health records to support continuity of care and regulatory compliance. Collaboration is essential: you’ll partner with physicians, therapists, social workers, dietary and activity teams to coordinate rehabilitation goals, fall prevention strategies, pain management, and transitions of care. You’ll also mentor junior staff and students as you demonstrate best practices in infection control, safety, and patient advocacy. The role offers ample opportunities to expand your clinical competencies, from palliative and end‑of‑life care discussions to complex medication regimens, while cultivating leadership and mentoring skills critical to advancement in geriatrics. We offer competitive benefits designed to recognize your expertise and dedication. Expect a weekly pay range of $2,326–$2,503, with guaranteed 36.0 hours per week, and the potential for contract extensions based on performance and staffing needs. A welcome bonus may be available, along with housing assistance to ease your transition to Avon. We understand that travel healthcare can be demanding, which is why you’ll have access to comprehensive, 24/7 support from a dedicated team while you’re on assignment. This means real‑time help for clinical questions, scheduling, and any travel logistics, so you can focus on delivering outstanding patient care. Our program is designed to maximize your time with residents, provide consistency in your shifts, and offer extension opportunities to deepen your LTC proficiency and leadership capabilities. Our company is built on a commitment to empower staff—cultivating clear paths for career advancement, ongoing education, and a supportive work environment where your contributions are valued. You’ll find an organizational culture that prioritizes mentorship, constructive feedback, and recognition of excellence in geriatric nursing. We invest in your growth through targeted training, opportunities to specialize in LTC sub‑areas, and the chance to take on greater responsibilities as you demonstrate clinical excellence and compassionate care. In our hands, a travel assignment becomes more than a temporary posting; it becomes a stepping stone to broader impact and professional fulfillment. If you’re ready to bring your clinical expertise to a setting that honors residents, families, and your own professional development, apply now. This is your chance to shape the future of LTC nursing in a supportive, forward‑thinking organization that values your voice and your growth as much as your patients’ well-being.
