Team Select Homecare of Valparaiso is actively searching for Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) to join our Private Duty nursing team!

For more information, please call 219-258-8001. We offer same day interviews, with opportunities for immediate placement upon hire!

This specific position provides a unique opportunity for a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) to work one on one with a member of our community that has skilled nursing needs. Our patients are typically pediatric or adult and have care needs such as: a G-tube, Cerebral Palsy, Epilepsy, and occasionally a Trach and Vent. Shifts are extended hours (4-12 hours with the one patient) for a full-time or part-time schedule.

Because we have the privilege to lend a helping hand to both pediatric and adult clients, our skilled nursing team can work in a client's home and/or in school/classroom settings. Prior to working with a client, we will provide you the opportunity to have a meet and greet with the patient and their family. This serves as a good opportunity to see the environment where you'd be working and ask questions in regard to the daily routine of the patient. We will work to find a schedule that works for YOU and YOUR availability.

Field nurses will work closely with the agency, family, and other service providers to ensure the best comprehensive care for the client. For more information about our private duty nursing services provided, please visit our website at www.tshc.com.
