You're More Than the Nurse Passing Medications.
You notice when someone's appetite changes.
You catch the new confusion that wasn't there yesterday.
You recognize when a medication isn't having the expected effect.
You hear the concern in a family member's voice and know it's worth looking into.
That's the kind of LPN we're looking for.
At Elmore Assisted Living, we want an LPN who understands that great nursing often starts with paying attention.
You'll provide hands-on nursing care, but you'll also be an important clinical resource for residents, caregivers, families, and the rest of our nursing team.
Your Nursing Experience Has Value Here
We're looking for someone who can do more than complete the tasks in front of them.
You'll get to know a consistent group of residents, understand their baseline, and use that familiarity to recognize when something needs attention.
Your observations can help determine when to monitor, when to communicate with nursing leadership, when to contact a provider, and when a resident may need additional intervention.
Why Consider Elmore?
- $30.00-$40.00/hour based on experience
- $1.00/hour Evening Differential
- $1.00/hour Weekend Differential
- Full-Time and Part-Time opportunities
- Evening shift
- Consistent resident population
- Assisted Living and Memory Care experience
- Opportunity to strengthen your geriatric and dementia-care skills
- Work closely with caregivers, nursing leadership, providers, and families
- Continued professional growth
- Accessible leadership within a Minnesota-based senior living organization
Be the Nurse Who Notices
As an LPN, you'll:
- Administer medications and treatments according to provider orders
- Monitor residents and recognize changes in condition
- Provide nursing care for chronic conditions and cognitive impairment
- Maintain accurate clinical documentation and medication records
- Support individualized resident service plans
- Communicate clinical concerns with nursing leadership and providers
- Provide guidance to caregivers and medication staff
- Communicate with residents and families
- Coordinate with physicians, pharmacies, home health, hospice, therapy, and other healthcare partners
- Promote resident safety, dignity, independence, and quality of life
Bring the Experience You've Already Built
Experience in Long-Term Care, Skilled Nursing, Rehabilitation, Assisted Living, Memory Care, Home Health, Hospice, Clinic Nursing, or Geriatric Care can translate well to this position.
You'll need an active Minnesota Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) license, strong clinical judgment, dependable communication, and the ability to confidently practice within your scope.
We're especially interested in LPNs who pay attention, ask questions, communicate concerns, and understand that small changes can tell you something important.
Good Nursing Is Often About What You Catch Early.
The medication pass matters. The documentation matters. The treatments matter.
But so does knowing your residents well enough to recognize when something just isn't right.
If you're looking for an LPN position where your experience and observations are valued, we'd like to meet you.
