A Typical Day:
As a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) at On With Life, you become part of the journey each person served takes, making memories with them along the way. Our nurses play a key role in helping our persons served maintain the highest quality of life by providing direct and personalized care, supervising and mentoring Certified Nursing Assistants, and coordinating care with other members of the team. We are a unique non-traditional long term care program that cares for a variety of ages specializing in brain injury, spinal cord, and neurological conditions.
You First. We Insist.
As a designated Top Workplace for over a decade, we understand the importance of work/life balance! That’s why we offer flexible schedules and shift lengths in addition to weekend-only options.

Our PRN requirement is 16 hours per 4-week schedule, 4 of which must be on weekends. As part of completing the application, you will be asked to specify the hours you are interested in. IMPORTANT: Please note that our orientation process (typically up to 1 month) may require working days or shifts outside of your permanent schedule.
