Step into a rewarding Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) role in Utica, New York, where your hands-on care makes a tangible difference every day. This specialty assignment invites you to support patients across diverse inpatient and outpatient settings, collaborating with RNs, physicians, and care teams to deliver compassionate, high-quality care. You’ll monitor vitals, administer medications, assist with daily living activities, help with wound care, and document with precision to ensure safety and continuity of care. The opportunity begins 12/29/2025 and runs for multiple weeks, with flexible durations to fit your goals. As you bring your expertise to the Mohawk Valley, you’ll also discover the beauty of New York—from serene canal towns to the Adirondack foothills, seasonal fairs, and vibrant arts scenes that enrich your personal life as you care for others.
Location Benefits:
Utica offers a welcoming community, affordable living, and a growing healthcare network that supports your professional growth. After shifts, stroll historic neighborhoods, enjoy local cuisine, and explore green spaces along the Mohawk River.

You’ll receive competitive weekly pay between $1,511 and $1,541, along with housing assistance and potential extension opportunities. Hours vary with no guaranteed minimum, giving you flexibility to balance personal commitments with your career aspirations. In addition, the chance to experience New York’s diverse landscapes—from river towns to lakeside retreats—offers enriching downtime that complements a demanding clinical schedule.

The role offers pathways for growth within the LPN specialty, including opportunities to gain experience in medical-surgical units, geriatrics, and specialty clinics, plus access to certifications and continuing education. Benefits include a sign-on bonus, housing assistance, and options to extend assignments for continuity. You’ll also have 24/7 support from a dedicated travel care team to help with scheduling, hiccups, and on-call needs wherever you travel. This comprehensive support ensures you feel secure while you explore new settings and broaden your clinical repertoire.
