Beyond hands-on clinical work, you'll coordinate with interdisciplinary teams, mentor support staff, and maintain comprehensive documentation while ensuring infection control and safety protocols are followed.
This role suits an LPN with geriatric or skilled nursing experience who can work independently and lead a care team.
