Make an Impact With Us
Do you want work that makes a meaningful difference in your community? Easterseals PORT Health is seeking a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) to join our Virginia REACH Crisis Therapeutic Home (CTH) team in Staunton, Virginia.
Virginia REACH provides crisis prevention, intervention, and stabilization services for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) who are experiencing behavioral health challenges. The Crisis Therapeutic Home offers short-term residential support in a warm, home-like setting designed to help individuals stabilize, build coping skills, and safely transition back to their homes and communities.

What You'll Do
- Provide compassionate nursing care and medical support to individuals with I/DD and co-occurring behavioral health needs.
- Administer medications safely and accurately in accordance with physician orders and clinical protocols.
- Conduct nursing assessments and monitor individuals' physical and behavioral health needs.
- Educate and empower individuals regarding their mental and physical health.
- Collaborate with interdisciplinary team members to ensure coordinated, person-centered care.
- Document nursing services, assessments, observations, and interventions in a timely and accurate manner.
