School-Based Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) | York, Pennsylvania

Step into a rewarding contract role supporting a young student’s journey at a middle school near Hanover, PA. This unique part-time position focuses on assisting a male student in the Autistic Support Transition Program, providing both in-school coverage and community-based support as needed. Your role will include flexible scheduling—each week will vary between 2 to 4 days, dependent on the student’s needs and community schedule.
