Tupper Lake, New York, United States TLC Nursing Full time $1,899 - $2,060
Embark on a rewarding journey as a Licensed Practical Nurse specializing in Long-Term Care, with a structured contract in Malone, New York, starting December 22, 2025. This opportunity places you at the center of compassionate, patient‑centered care where your clinical skills, empathy, and teamwork directly influence quality of life for residents who rely on steady, respectful support. Bring your resilience and professionalism to a role that honors dignity, independence, and comfort, while you grow your repertoire in geriatric nursing and long‑term care best practices. New York's diverse landscape offers a backdrop that inspires, and Malone provides a welcoming community where your voice matters and your contributions are recognized daily. Beyond the clinical floor, you'll be part of a network that understands your career goals and your need for balance, continuous learning, and meaningful impact. In downtime, the region's natural beauty—from rolling hills and tranquil lakes to forested trails and scenic drives—invites rest, exploration, and renewal. You'll discover how small‑town camaraderie and proximity to broader regional amenities combine to create a professionally satisfying home.

Working in Malone offers a compelling blend of hands‑on nursing within a close‑knit community and the chance to experience New York's scenic wonders. The town sits in the foothills of the Adirondack region, where fall foliage dazzles and outdoor adventures abound. Easy access to parks, rivers, and nearby towns means weekend getaways, cultural events, and local cuisine to savor after shifts. The position also provides an option to deploy across the United States within our network, offering exposure to varied long‑term care settings—from single‑site residential campuses to multi‑facility networks—while maintaining the dependable support and structured scheduling you expect. This combination delivers a distinctive professional lifestyle: meaningful resident relationships, opportunities to learn new clinical skills, and the flexibility to broaden your horizons while maintaining a stable routine.

In this role, you'll deliver essential nursing care to residents with complex needs. Key responsibilities include assisting with activities of daily living, monitoring vital signs, administering medications under supervision, wound care management, and participating in care planning and interdisciplinary rounds. You'll help prevent falls, promote infection control, and advocate for residents' comfort and safety around the clock. Documentation will be accurate and timely to support continuity of care, family communications, and regulatory compliance. You'll engage families with compassion, educate staff on best practices, and model professional behavior that uplifts the entire care team. This path offers strong potential for growth within the Long‑Term Care specialty: pursue certifications in dementia care, wound care, or geriatric assessment; leverage mentorship from experienced clinicians; and explore leadership tracks such as charge nurse roles or clinical educator positions. The compensation package aligns with your expertise and dedication, offering weekly pay in the range of $1,899 to $2,060, with a bonus program, housing assistance, and extension opportunities to reflect your ongoing commitment. A robust support framework accompanies you on this journey, including 24/7 assistance from traveling specialists and scheduling coordinators who ensure you have the resources you need, when you need them, to focus on patient-centered care.

The company values your contributions and is committed to empowering every professional who joins our family. We foster a culture of continuous learning, transparent communication, and collaborative problem solving, with clear pathways for advancement and recognition of achievement. Expect a caring, inclusive environment that supports your development, respects your autonomy, and prioritizes work‑life balance as much as possible within contract assignments. The organization champions your professional voice, provides regular opportunities for skill enhancement, and backs you with a network of experienced colleagues who celebrate successes and learn from challenges together.

Ready to apply? This is your chance to join a company that values your clinical expertise and is invested in your growth. If you're passionate about delivering dignified, person‑centered care to long‑term care residents and eager to explore new places while building a meaningful career, we want to hear from you. Embrace a role that combines professional advancement with the beauty and richness of New York State, plus the flexibility to experience a variety of settings across the country. Your next chapter as a Licensed Practical Nurse in Long‑Term Care starts here—where your impact matters, your development is supported, and you're part of something bigger than a single shift.
