LPN I - East 5

COMING SOON: Highland Hospital's New Acute Medicine Unit!! Be part of something new. Help us build something great. Highland Hospital is preparing to open our 20 bed newly renovated Acute Medicine Unit on East 5 in November 2026, and we are looking for passionate, team-oriented nurses to join us! This is an exciting opportunity to help shape a new unit, contribute to a positive team culture, and provide exceptional care to patients who need us most.

With many patients arriving directly from the ED, our team will play an important role in providing timely, compassionate, high-quality acute care. The Licensed Practical Nurse in Acute Care (LPN) provides patient care under the direction of a Registered Nurse. The LPN plays an integral role in the physical and emotional comfort of patients and their families.

The LPN provides direct patient care in collaboration with other health care team members and completes other tasks to support patient care. The NYS Education Department differentiated scope of practice of LPNs and RNs in the source document used for determining tasks that the LPN may perform.
