LVN (Licensed Vocational Nurse) Full/Part-time, Weekends & Overnights

Tessera Adolescent Health is a new residential treatment program opening in Levittown, Pennsylvania. We provide residential treatment for substance use and co-occurring disorders to adolescents ages 14 through 17. We're hiring our first nursing team, so the nurses who start with us help set how the unit runs instead of inheriting someone else's routines.
In a program like this, the nurses are the ones clients see most. You're with them on the hard days early in treatment, you're there at every med pass, and you're usually the first person to notice when an adolescent is turning a corner. Most of them are away from home for the first time, and they're scared. How a nurse talks to them ends up mattering as much as the vitals.
We have full-time and part-time openings for Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) on 2nd shift, 3rd shift, and weekends. Pay is $25 to $35 an hour depending on experience.
