Job description

Care Advantage, Inc. is seeking a dedicated and compassionate Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) to join our growing High Acuity Division. In this specialized role, you'll provide individualized, one‑on‑one care for medically fragile adults who require focused attention, clinical oversight, and emotional support in the comfort of their own homes.

Our High Acuity program is designed to reduce depression, slow cognitive decline, and help patients safely maintain independence with customized care plans developed by our Registered Nurses. If you're a skilled LPN who is passionate about meaningful patient relationships and delivering exceptional care, this is an opportunity to make a true difference.

Why This Role Is Special

Working in our High Acuity Division means you'll handle more complex and clinically engaging care than traditional home care. This includes caring for individuals with chronic illnesses, cognitive challenges, mobility limitations, or medically intensive needs-while still enjoying the autonomy and personal connection of one‑on‑one care.

You will be part of a supportive, mission‑driven environment that values professional growth, high-quality standards, and compassionate service.

What We Offer

We believe in investing in the people who invest in our patients:

Career Growth & Stability

• A deeply rewarding clinical role where you see the impact of your care every day
• Opportunity for quarterly and annual performance bonuses
• $500 referral bonuses for recommending great teammates

Professional Development

• Paid in‑service training to enhance your clinical skillset
• Exposure to specialty care areas within the High Acuity model
• Supportive RN leadership that provides mentoring and guidance

Flexibility & Balance

• Flexible scheduling options that allow for work–life balance
• Overtime opportunities for additional earnings

Culture & Appreciation

• Employee recognition programs to celebrate great work
• A team that values compassion, collaboration, and excellence

What You'll Do (Expanded LPN Responsibilities)

As a High Acuity LPN, you will play a central role in delivering comprehensive, personalized care. Your work will support both the patient's physical stability and their emotional well‑being.

Direct Patient Care

• Provide hands‑on nursing care including vital signs monitoring, symptom observation, and basic clinical procedures
• Follow and implement RN‑developed care plans tailored to each patient's unique needs
• Assist with mobility, medication reminders, and condition‑specific care tasks
• Promote patient comfort, safety, and emotional stability through attentive, individualized care

Accurate Clinical Documentation

• Complete timely, clear documentation that reflects progress, changes in condition, and care interventions
• Communicate concerns or updates to the RN Case Manager or Clinical Supervisor

Family & Caregiver Education

• Teach families about daily care routines, safety practices, and important warning signs
• Help caregivers build confidence and competence in supporting their loved one

Specialized Support & Procedures

• Assist RNs or physicians with specialized tasks, including:
  • Preparing treatment equipment
  • Maintaining aseptic technique
  • Monitoring responses to therapies
• Support the patient in learning safe self‑care techniques when appropriate

Team Collaboration

• Participate in coordinated home health services
• Identify when additional disciplines may be needed (HHA, OT, PT, MSW, ST, Dietician) and report accordingly
• Foster strong communication with supervisors to ensure a seamless care experience

What You Need to Qualify

We are looking for someone who is both clinically capable and emotionally grounded:

• Eligibility to work in the United States
• Active LPN license (minimum 1 year of LPN experience)
• CPR Certification and up‑to‑date PPD
• Valid driver's license
• Reliable transportation
• Strong communication skills and a commitment to compassionate, patient‑first care
