Nurse LPN **

Description:

Shift: Monday-Friday 7AM-4PM and rotating Saturdays 5:30AM-10:30AM

Make a real difference — one patient at a time.

At Community Medical Services (CMS), we believe recovery is possible for everyone. As a Dosing Nurse, you'll be a critical part of that journey — administering medication to patients recovering from opioid and other substance use disorders, and helping create a safe, judgment-free space where healing can begin.

Working closely with your Clinic Manager and medical providers, you'll conduct testing, manage medication inventory, maintain accurate records, and be a steady, trusted presence for clients navigating one of the hardest chapters of their lives.

This isn't just a nursing job — it's a chance to be part of someone's turning point.

Why You'll Love Working Here

We invest in the people who invest in our patients. Our benefits package includes:

• Subsidized medical, dental, and vision insurance
• Health savings account (HSA)

• Paid sick, vacation, and holiday time
• 401(k) with company match
• Tuition and CME reimbursement — up to 100%
• Employee assistance program for your mental health and wellness
• Ongoing professional development and growth opportunities

Is This You?

You'll thrive in this role if you:

• Prefer a predictable, outpatient setting and schedule
• Genuinely enjoy connecting with people — you'll spend your day talking with clients, not lifting or transferring them
• Want work that feels meaningful at the end of every shift

What You'll Do

• Administer medications as ordered by CMS medical providers
• Monitor behavioral, medical, and physical symptoms related to dosage and substance use
• Obtain vital signs, blood specimens, and urine samples
• Process point-of-care urine drug screens per company policy
• Prepare take-home medication (n/a in Montana)

• Maintain accurate client records in our EHR system
• Document medication errors and respond to adverse reactions per protocol
• Coordinate courtesy dosing for incoming/outgoing clients
• Deliver medications to external facilities as needed
• Order and maintain dosing room and nursing supplies

• Administer CPR when necessary

Requirements:

What You'll Bring

• Active LPN license in your state of employment
• Current CPR certification
• Willingness to travel to assigned CMS sites
• Valid driver's license with a clean driving record (past 39 months) and reliable transportation
• Experience with substance use disorders is a plus, but not required — we'll help you build that expertise
• Familiarity with signs of intoxication and opioid withdrawal
• A sharp eye for accuracy in medication administration and recordkeeping
