Elderwood at Cheektowaga is seeking Licensed Practical Nurses to join our skilled nursing and rehabilitation team.
As an LPN, you will help manage the daily clinical care of residents and short-stay rehabilitation patients while providing direction and support to CNAs on your assigned team. This is a hands-on nursing opportunity for an LPN who values clinical responsibility, interdisciplinary collaboration, and the opportunity to build meaningful relationships with the people in their care.
Whether you are beginning your nursing career or bringing years of experience, Elderwood at Cheektowaga offers a setting where you can strengthen your skills, contribute to a clinically active care team, and pursue continued professional growth.
Ask our recruitment team to explain the available compensation programs and how your experience, shift, employment status, and benefit elections may affect your individual rate.
Elderwood at Cheektowaga offers nurses the clinical variety of a post-acute environment combined with the opportunity to build meaningful relationships with the people in their care.
Our subacute rehabilitation unit serves patients transitioning from hospital to home, including individuals recovering from illness, injury, surgery, orthopedic procedures, and cardiac conditions. The nursing team supports complex clinical needs that may include IV therapy, PICC-line management, wound vacs, complex wound care, ostomy care, enteral feeding, and dialysis coordination.
For nurses who enjoy med-surg-style clinical variety, interdisciplinary collaboration, and the opportunity to strengthen their assessment and technical skills, this is a setting where you can continue developing clinically while helping patients make measurable progress toward recovery.
LPNs at Elderwood have meaningful clinical responsibility—but they are not expected to practice without support.
You will work closely with onsite RN and nursing leadership, including Unit Managers, RN Supervisors, the Assistant Director of Nursing, and the Director of Nursing. Facility clinical teams also benefit from the standards, resources, and broader leadership of Elderwood Administrative Services, including the Chief Nursing Officer and Regional Nurse Consultant structure.
This gives you access to experienced nursing leaders and organizational clinical resources as you coordinate care, respond to changes in condition, guide CNAs, and support quality and regulatory expectations.
Your LPN position can be both meaningful work today and a foundation for continued nursing growth.
Elderwood offers tuition-reimbursement programs and educational partnerships with D’Youville University, Erie 1 BOCES, and Trocaire College. Eligible employees may use available education programs to support future nursing and professional-development goals, subject to program requirements.
Whether you want to deepen your LPN practice, advance your education, become an RN, or pursue future opportunities in supervision, education, unit management, or nursing administration, Elderwood offers multiple pathways for continued growth, including a 12-week training program for nursing leaders.
