This multi-week opportunity is crafted for LPNs who value meaningful relationships, clinical excellence, and professional growth within a supportive team. Begin your assignment with a start date of January 6, 2026, and discover how your expertise can elevate quality of life for seniors while expanding your own career horizons. And because New York state is rich with beauty and exploration, you’ll also find moments to pause and appreciate the region’s culture, nature, and history—from serene lake views to vibrant local communities.

Location benefits :

Working in Waterloo, New York offers a welcoming, close-knit community atmosphere, complemented by access to the state’s natural and cultural treasures. You’ll enjoy the balance of quiet, familiar neighborhoods and opportunities to explore nearby Finger Lakes scenery, wineries, and outdoor recreation. In addition to the particular pull of Waterloo, this assignment can extend to various locations across New York and beyond the state, providing a dynamic backdrop for your clinical practice. New York’s urban corridors and rural pockets deliver a spectrum of patient populations, facility environments, and care models that challenge and refine your clinical judgment. Whether you prefer engaging with residents in a small-town setting or experiencing care in bustling facilities with interprofessional teams, you’ll train, grow, and adapt in ways that broaden your professional repertoire. The state’s rich history and diverse landscapes invite you to pause, reflect, and reconnect with the human side of nursing, while the role itself keeps you at the forefront of long-term care best practices through constant, hands-on application and collaboration.
