The Village Medical is looking for a compassionate, motivated, and patient-focused Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) to join our collaborative family practice team.
Whether you're an experienced LPN or a recent graduate looking to build your skills in primary care, we'd love to hear from you. We believe in creating a supportive environment where our team members are encouraged to learn, grow, and make a meaningful impact on the lives of our patients.
We're looking for someone who is organized, proactive, and enjoys a role that combines both clinical nursing and administrative responsibilities. The ideal candidate is a confident critical thinker who can triage patients appropriately, prioritize competing demands, and provide exceptional patient care while contributing to the smooth day-to-day operation of the clinic.
What You'll Do
As part of our clinical team, you will:
- Welcome patients with professionalism, kindness, and compassion.
- Confidently triage patients, recognizing urgent concerns and communicating effectively with physicians.
- Apply sound clinical judgment and critical thinking to prioritize patient care in a busy family practice environment.
- Obtain and document vital signs, including newborn and pediatric measurements.
- Perform focused nursing assessments and accurately document findings within the EMR.
- Perform urine dipstick testing, pregnancy testing, and specimen collection.
- Assist physicians with minor procedures including biopsies, IUD insertions, laceration repairs, and other office procedures.
- Act as a chaperone during sensitive examinations or procedures when required.
- Prepare examination rooms, procedure trays, and medical equipment.
- Clean, disinfect, sterilize, and maintain reusable medical instruments according to infection prevention and control standards.
- Operate and maintain the clinic autoclave and complete sterilization documentation accurately. Previous autoclave experience is an asset; however, comprehensive training will be provided to the successful candidate.
- Maintain clean, organized, and well-stocked clinical areas.
- Monitor medical supply inventory and assist with ordering supplies.
- Support front desk operations by answering telephone calls, assisting with appointment scheduling, responding to patient inquiries, and helping wherever needed.
- Follow infection prevention, privacy, and clinic safety protocols.
- Identify opportunities to improve clinic efficiency, patient care, and overall workflow.
What We're Looking For
- Active registration and good standing with the College of Licensed Practical Nurses of Alberta (CLPNA).
- Experience in a family practice or outpatient clinic is preferred; however, new graduates are encouraged to apply.
- Excellent critical thinking, assessment, and clinical decision-making skills.
- Ability to confidently triage patients and recognize when concerns require escalation.
- Comfortable balancing both clinical nursing responsibilities and administrative tasks.
- Strong organizational skills with exceptional attention to detail.
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
- Professional, reliable, adaptable, and compassionate.
- Experience using electronic medical records (TELUS Med Access and AVA are considered assets).
- Current CPR and First Aid certification.
- Experience with instrument reprocessing and autoclave operation is considered an asset but not required—training will be provided.
Why Join The Village Medical?
At The Village Medical, we believe that exceptional patient care starts with an exceptional team.
We foster a workplace built on collaboration, kindness, respect, and continuous learning. You'll work alongside experienced physicians and healthcare professionals who value teamwork, support one another, and are committed to providing outstanding care to our community.
We offer:
