Job Description

Step into a pivotal Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) role in Helena, Montana, where expert bedside care meets a community that values resilience, compassion, and connection. This opportunity is designed for skilled LPNs who thrive in fast-paced clinical environments and relish the chance to make meaningful differences in patients’ lives every shift. As you join our team, you’ll provide essential nursing support, monitor patient status, administer routine medications, perform procedures within your scope, and collaborate closely with RNs and physicians to deliver safe, high-quality care. Begin this journey on 12/14/2025, with an initial assignment described in weeks, and a strong potential for contract extensions based on performance and unit needs. You’ll enjoy a guaranteed 40 hours of weekly work, coupled with a competitive pay range of $1,472 to $1,551 per week, reflecting your experience, responsibilities, and the standard demands of the unit.

Helena calls to explorers and steady professionals alike with its blend of small-town charm and modern healthcare access. Working in Montana offers a unique lifestyle that’s both invigorating and accessible. The Helena area showcases wide, sunlit skies, outdoor opportunities just outside your door, and a welcoming community that values well-being and balance. While you’ll certainly appreciate the local scenery—from the foothills and open plains to nearby trails and rivers—the broader appeal comes from your role within a network that supports patient-centered care. For professionals who enjoy travel, there’s also the potential to work across varied locations in the U.S., gaining exposure to diverse patient populations, hospital cultures, and clinical protocols. This combination of stable, in-state placement and the option to broaden your horizons makes the position especially compelling for career-minded LPNs seeking both rooted community impact and pathways to new experiences.

In this role, you’ll own key responsibilities that strengthen clinical outcomes while expanding your professional toolkit. Your duties include performing routine assessments, administering prescribed medications, updating and maintaining accurate patient records, assisting with daily living activities, and supporting wound care and patient mobility under supervision. You’ll participate in shift handoffs, collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to adjust care plans, and provide patient and family education on treatment goals, medication safety, and discharge instructions. The position presents robust opportunities for growth within the LPN specialty: you can build expertise in chronic disease management, inpatient nursing workflows, and transitional care, while pursuing targeted training opportunities that prepare you for advanced practice or leadership pathways down the line. We recognize the power of excellent support systems: you’ll receive comprehensive on-site orientation, ongoing mentorship, and access to resources designed to sharpen clinical judgment and administrative efficiency alike. To complement clinical development, we offer a package that includes a welcome bonus, housing assistance, and flexible extension opportunities so you can continue to grow with the team beyond the initial assignment.

Our company’s core values center on empowering staff to chart their own career path while maintaining a nurturing, collaborative work environment. We’re committed to recognizing your contributions, honoring your professional judgment, and providing the resources you need to excel. Expect 24/7 support as you travel and work through assignments, with a dedicated support team ready to help you troubleshoot clinical questions, resolve scheduling concerns, and ensure a smooth, secure experience no matter where your assignment takes you. The culture here emphasizes respect, accountability, and a shared passion for patient advocacy, with clear pathways for feedback, skill-building, and advancement within the organization. Your voice matters—from patient interactions to unit-level improvements—and you’ll find mentors, peers, and leaders who invest in your growth and well-being.

Ready to seize an impactful, rewarding opportunity as an LPN in Helena? If you’re a compassionate, detail-oriented professional who values steady hours, competitive compensation, and a supportive network, this assignment is a perfect match. Apply now to join a company that respects your expertise, prioritizes your development, and celebrates the essential role you play in delivering safe, compassionate care. This is more than a job—it’s a chance to contribute meaningfully to your community, expand your clinical repertoire, and build a lasting professional home that recognizes your dedication and ambition.

Note: The hours and pay rates listed are estimates and may vary. Final compensation packages and guaranteed hours will be confirmed during the hiring process.
