Travel LPN/LVN – Long Term Care (Newport, VT)

Ref #: C-LPN-9061416

Join a friendly team in Newport, VT for a 13-week contract/travel opportunity starting ASAP. This position is full-time with shifts roughly 7:00 AM–7:30 PM and offers travel pay at $1,832 per 40-hour week.

What we’re looking for:

• An active, valid Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) license for the state.
• Current BLS certification.

What you’ll be doing:
You’ll provide hands-on nursing care under RN or physician direction — everything from giving medications and monitoring vitals to wound care and IV therapy. You’ll complete patient assessments, help develop and follow individualized care plans, document changes and treatments accurately, and collect specimens for lab testing. Educating patients and families, promoting preventive care (like vaccinations and screenings), and advocating for patient needs are all part of the role.

On a typical day you might:

• Administer medications and prescribed treatments with attention to correct dosing and protocols.
• Assess and manage wounds, catheters, and IV lines, watching for complications or signs of infection.
• Monitor and chart vital signs, pain levels, and other changes in condition.
• Assist with positioning, mobility, and comfort measures; respond to emergencies using established protocols and basic life support.
• Collaborate with RNs, physicians, therapists, CNAs, and other staff to coordinate care.
• Follow infection control practices and handle medications and supplies safely.
• Supervise CNAs or other assistive personnel when applicable.
• Participate in ongoing education to stay current with nursing best practices.

Other responsibilities may be assigned by management. If you’re a dependable LPN who values teamwork and patient-centered care, we’d love to hear from you.
