About Us

For decades, Bethea Retirement Community has been a trusted cornerstone of compassionate senior care in Darlington and the surrounding Pee Dee region. We are thrilled to share that Bethea is now managed by Oakdale Seniors Alliance!

Under this new leadership, our mission is centered on creating a culture rooted in compassion, clinical excellence, and hospitality. We are building a strong, supported team dedicated to giving our residents every opportunity to experience life, celebrate today, and create a meaningful tomorrow.

The Role

We are seeking dedicated, compassionate Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) to join our clinical team for full-time 12-hour shifts.

Whether you thrive on the bright energy of Day Shift (7a–7p) or prefer the steady rhythm of Night Shift (7p–7a), you will play a crucial role on our floor. You’ll deliver direct nursing care, administer medications and treatments, support our CNAs, and build meaningful relationships with our residents and their families.

Key Responsibilities

• Direct Resident Care: Administer prescribed medications, treatments, and wound care accurately and in compliance with state standards and physician orders.
• Clinical Monitoring: Perform ongoing health assessments, track vital signs, document changes in condition, and communicate updates to attending physicians and family members.
• Team Support: Provide direct clinical guidance, delegation, and support to Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs) on your shift.
• Care Planning: Assist in maintaining accurate, up-to-date electronic care plans and medical records.
• Smooth Handovers: Participate in thorough shift reports to ensure seamless continuity of care between 12-hour shift transitions.

Qualifications

• Licensure: Active, unencumbered license as a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) in the State of South Carolina (or a valid compact state license).
• Certifications: Current CPR / BLS certification required.
• Experience: Previous LPN experience in a Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF), Long-Term Care, or Assisted Living setting is a plus, but motivated new graduates are encouraged to apply!
• Skillset: Excellent clinical assessment abilities, strong communication, and a heart for working with senior residents.

What We Offer

• Great Work-Life Balance: 12-hour shifts mean fewer working days per week and more continuous time off!

• Immediate Pay Access: Get paid before payday using the RAIN Earned Wage Access app!
• Comprehensive Benefits: Full medical, dental, and vision insurance packages.
• Paid Time Off: Generous PTO and paid holiday packages.
