Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN)

Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) | Providing Compassionate Care and Meaningful Connections

Wellspring Skilled Nursing & Rehab – Frankenmuth | Full-time, Part-Time, Per Diem | Hourly $30.40-$32.90

You chose nursing because you wanted to care for people during moments that matter. You understand that nursing is about more than medications, treatments, and charting. It's about helping someone feel comfortable when they're not feeling their best. It's about reassuring family members, noticing small changes that make a big difference, and helping residents maintain dignity, independence, and quality of life. At Wellspring, those opportunities are part of every shift. Here, residents aren't simply patients. They are individuals with unique life stories, experiences, goals, and relationships. They rely on compassionate caregivers who see them as people first and are committed to helping them live as fully and comfortably as possible. At Wellspring, we're looking for Licensed Practical Nurses who are passionate about providing exceptional care while building meaningful relationships with residents and families. As an LPN, you'll be a vital member of the care team, helping residents maintain their health, comfort, and well-being while creating an environment where they feel respected, supported, and at home. Most importantly, you'll help residents experience the dignity, comfort, and quality of life they deserve.

What Your Impact Will Look Like

You’ll provide hands‑on nursing care that supports residents physically, emotionally, and socially. You'll spend time getting to know residents, understanding their unique needs, and helping ensure their care reflects their personal preferences and goals. You'll serve as an advocate for residents while collaborating with physicians, nursing assistants, therapists, and other members of the interdisciplinary team to provide coordinated, person‑centered care. You'll monitor changes in condition, communicate concerns, implement physician orders, and help ensure residents receive timely interventions that support positive outcomes. You'll help guide and support nursing assistants during your shift while fostering teamwork and a shared commitment to resident care. You'll contribute to admissions, discharges, care planning, and ongoing assessments while helping create a safe and welcoming environment for residents and families. Some days you'll be providing comfort to a resident who needs reassurance. Other days you'll be supporting a family through important healthcare decisions, coordinating care with physicians, or identifying a subtle change in condition that prevents a larger health issue. Every day, you'll make a meaningful difference.

Why This Role Matters

For many residents, nurses become some of the most trusted people in their daily lives. Your clinical skills help keep residents safe and healthy. Your compassion helps them feel valued and supported. Your presence helps families feel confident that their loved one is receiving exceptional care. In skilled nursing, quality care isn't just about medical treatment. It's about preserving dignity, promoting independence, building trust, and helping people maintain the highest possible quality of life. As an LPN, you'll play an important role in making that happen.
