About per diem Long-Term Care Nurse work

Long-term care clinicians support residents in skilled nursing and extended-care settings, where the focus is sustained daily care rather than short acute stays. Typical duties include medication passes, treatments and wound care, chronic-condition monitoring, documentation for care plans, and partnering with CNAs, therapy staff, and families to keep residents safe and comfortable.

Per-diem long-term care shifts are typically posted by skilled nursing facilities and rehabilitation-oriented units that need dependable coverage across days, evenings, nights, and weekends. The setting suits clinicians who value continuity, relationship-based care, and steady, structured routines over the variability of acute care.

Credential and licensure expectations vary by state and care setting, and typically include:

• Active nursing license (RN or LPN/LVN depending on the role) for the state where the shift is located
• BLS certification is commonly required
• Experience in skilled nursing, rehab, or extended care is typically expected
• State-specific requirements vary; some settings also request med-pass or wound-care competencies
