This opportunity invites you to bring your expertise to a vibrant community, making an immediate impact on residents’ well-being while embracing the freedom and growth that come with travel nursing. Picture yourself delivering patient-centered care that emphasizes dignity, comfort, and connection, supported by a team that values your talents and your voice. And beyond the assignment, immerse yourself in the beauty of New Mexico—sunlit days, stunning desert landscapes, and a rich blend of cultures that enrich both your professional and personal life. This opportunity also opens doors to assignments across the United States, giving you the chance to experience varied care environments, expand your clinical toolkit, and build a diverse portfolio of LTC expertise while advancing your career with a trusted partner. Las Cruces offers a welcoming base with affordable living, abundant sunshine, and easy access to outdoor adventures. You’ll enjoy the charm of a city known for its friendly neighborhoods, outdoor recreation, and a growing arts and dining scene. When you’re off shift, you can explore the Organ Mountains-Desert Peaks, stroll through historic Mesilla, savor local flavors, and absorb the warmth of a community that values caregivers. For those who crave variety, the role seamlessly expands to opportunity across multiple locations in the U.S., allowing you to rotate through different LTC facilities—from rural communities that emphasize close-knit teamwork to larger campuses in urban areas—each enriching your clinical perspective and professional resilience. Our travel program provides the infrastructure to support you as you navigate new facilities, new teams, and new charts, while keeping your focus on patient care and personal growth. In this role, you’ll be the steady, skilled presence that LTC residents rely on—administering medications, assessing health status, and implementing comprehensive care plans tailored to each individual’s needs. You’ll perform routine and complex nursing tasks, including wound care, catheter and infusion management, rehab and mobility support, pain management, and daily activities that promote safety, independence, and quality of life. You’ll collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to refine care plans, communicate with families about progress and changes, and document meticulously to ensure continuity of care across shifts and settings. You’ll have opportunities for professional growth within the LTC specialty, from expanding clinical competencies to pursuing leadership tracks, mentorship roles for new staff, and certification pathways that recognize your expertise. The package includes a competitive compensation range, a sign-on style bonus, housing assistance, and the chance to extend engagements based on performance and staffing needs. You’ll receive robust support from our 24/7 travel assistance team, ensuring you’re never alone on the road and always have a trusted partner backing your assignments, from orientation to wrap-up. The program is designed to honor your constraints and preferences while offering steady work with guaranteed hours. Key benefits include a consistent schedule with guaranteed 36 hours per week, delivering financial stability even while you explore new communities. The weekly pay range is competitive, typically between $1,088 and $1,157, reflecting the value you bring to the LTC setting. The start date for this assignment is February 2, 2026, with the duration measured in weeks to align with the flexibility you want in your travel nursing journey. In addition to compensation, you’ll have access to housing assistance and extension opportunities, allowing you to build a longer, more integrated experience should you choose to continue with the program. A bonus recognizes your commitment and clinical excellence, while comprehensive support ensures seamless transitions between facilities, shifts, and locations. We’re committed to helping you thrive, not just survive, in every assignment you accept. Company values center on empowering staff, elevating careers, and fostering a supportive, collaborative environment. We invest in your success by providing clear pathways for advancement, ongoing clinical education, mentorship from experienced professionals, and a culture that respects work-life balance even as you pursue ambitious professional goals. You’ll join a team that believes in your ability to shape the future of LTC care, where your insights, compassion, and clinical judgment are welcomed, celebrated, and trusted to influence resident outcomes and program improvements.
