This multi-week assignment begins on 12/09/2025, inviting you to apply advanced nursing skills to complex, long-term acute care cases. You’ll manage meticulous patient assessments, collaborate with physicians and therapists, and lead care coordination that accelerates recovery and improves quality of life. From ventilator weaning and tracheostomy care to wound management and infectious disease control, your clinical leadership will drive outcomes while you refine your practice in a focused LTAC environment. Beyond the bedside, you’ll mentor peers, document with precision, and contribute to a culture of safety and compassion. While you pursue professional excellence, you’ll also have the chance to savor the state’s unique beauty—where desert sunsets give way to lush canyon rims, and Albuquerque’s Old Town, vibrant arts scene, and year-round outdoor adventures complement a rewarding nursing career. New Mexico’s landscapes—from the Sandia Mountains to volcanic mesas—offer inspirational backdrops as you deliver compassionate, patient-centered care that makes a real difference. Location benefits: Albuquerque places you in a dynamic western city known for its warm hospitality, culinary flare, and outdoor accessibility.

And for those drawn to exploration, New Mexico’s high desert skies, hiking trails, and cultural festivals create a unique backdrop that makes every shift feel meaningful. Role specifics and benefits: As an LTAC RN, you will conduct comprehensive patient evaluations, develop and adjust individualized care plans, oversee IV therapy, respiratory support, wound care, and complex medication regimens, and coordinate with multidisciplinary teams to ensure seamless transitions of care. You’ll engage families in planning and education, advocate for patient needs, and document with accuracy to support optimal outcomes. The position offers clear pathways for professional advancement within LTAC, exposure to high-acuity populations, and opportunities to deepen expertise in ventilator care, chronic disease management, and rehabilitative strategies. Benefits include a competitive sign-on bonus, housing assistance, and potential extension opportunities to continue your journey with the program. You’ll receive 24/7 support from a dedicated team while traveling, ensuring you have reliable guidance, resources, and a sense of security at every hour.
