Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN)

Genuine Senior Care LLC, dba Home Instead, is seeking a part-time Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) in St. Joseph, Missouri.

At Home Instead, we're more than a home care company. We're a passionate, mission-driven team working together to enhance the lives of aging adults. We believe collaboration, respect, and compassion are at the heart of everything we do.

We're looking for an LPN who wants to make a meaningful difference for our clients, caregivers, and families. This role is ideal for a nurse who values flexibility, enjoys working as part of a collaborative clinical team, has an eye for detail, and is passionate about providing quality care to older adults. Working alongside our Registered Nurse (RN), the LPN will help support client care, caregiver education, medication-related needs, clinical documentation, and compliance.

What You’ll Do

Support Client Care: Build relationships with clients and families by assisting with in-home visits, gathering health information, and supporting individualized care plans under the direction of the RN.

Assist with Caregiver

Education

Reinforce care instructions, assist with caregiver training, and collaborate with the RN on nursing tasks and other responsibilities authorized within the LPN's scope of practice.

Monitor and Communicate Changes: Observe and document changes in client conditions, communicate concerns promptly to the RN, and assist with coordinating follow-up care as appropriate.

Support Medication-Related Needs: Assist with medication list reviews, identify and report potential medication concerns or discrepancies, document observations, and provide medication-related education or assistance as permitted by applicable regulations, agency policies, and the LPN's scope of practice.

Maintain Clinical Documentation and Compliance: Keep accurate records and assist with documentation reviews, state compliance requirements, and Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services (DHSS) survey readiness.

Collaborate and Improve: Work closely with the RN and care team, identify opportunities to improve care delivery, and contribute ideas that strengthen client outcomes and caregiver support.

Support Client and Family Engagement: Participate in care consultations and discussions about Home Instead services as appropriate to the role.
