Albany, NY
ProCare Schools - RN Nurse Contract 1 day ago Apply

This is an exciting opportunity for compassionate healthcare professionals to make a meaningful impact in an elementary school setting near Albany, NY. We are seeking one Registered Nurse (RN) and one Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN/LVN) to serve as full-time floaters for the entire school year. Your skills and dedication will support elementary school students and staff in a dynamic, collaborative environment.

Both nursing roles follow a convenient Monday–Friday schedule, from 7am to 3pm, and provide consistent hours throughout the academic year. As a floater, you’ll offer valuable support across several elementary campuses, addressing daily health needs, responding to emergencies, and assisting with care plans for students with chronic medical conditions.

Notably, one floater role will transition into a focused, rewarding 1:1 assignment: from December through the end of the school year, you’ll work closely with an elementary student requiring tracheostomy care to cover for a maternity leave.

Ideal candidates will have:

  • Current RN or LPN/LVN license in New York State
  • Recent experience in pediatric or school nursing (preferred)
  • Clinical skills in acute and chronic care; previous trach experience is highly desirable for the maternity leave coverage
  • Flexibility to travel between schools as needed
  • Exceptional communication, organizational, and teamwork abilities
  • Commitment to creating a safe, nurturing environment for children
  • Key responsibilities:

  • Provide daily nursing care for students and staff
  • Administer medications and manage care for chronic health conditions
  • Respond to medical emergencies with professionalism and composure
  • Document care thoroughly and maintain health records
  • Educate students and staff on wellness and safety initiatives
  • If you’re a dedicated RN or LPN/LVN eager to support the health and success of elementary students while enjoying steady work hours and making a difference every day, we encourage you to apply today!

    Compensation for this position ranges from $28.22 to $58.22. Eligible candidates may also receive healthcare benefits, housing, and meals/incidentals. Full details of our healthcare benefits plan can be found here. This posting is open for 60 days after the posting date.
