When nurses choose a place to build their career, they’re looking for more than a job description.
They’re seeking a purpose-driven workplace that supports clinical skill, encourages collaboration, and values the human side of caregiving.
At The Kensington White Plains, nurses find all of that—and more.
Our community blends high-acuity care with the warmth of a true home, offering a setting where clinical professionals are empowered, respected, and inspired.
If you’re exploring nursing jobs in White Plains or considering a shift from hospital or agency work into senior living, here’s what makes The Kensington White Plains experience stand out.
A Culture That Respects and Elevates Nurses
Nurses at The Kensington White Plains are seen as critical partners in resident care, not just task managers.
Here, your expertise is valued, your voice is heard, and your work directly shapes outcomes.
You’ll be part of a culture that prioritizes:
- Empowered clinical decision-making
- Ongoing communication across disciplines
- Respectful collaboration with families and leadership
- Recognition of the emotional and physical demands of the role
It’s a place where you’re part of something bigger, a team that truly has each other’s backs. Nurses here aren’t just supported; they’re trusted to lead with both skill and heart.
24/7 On-Site Nursing: The Support You Deserve
At The Kensington White Plains, nurses are never flying solo. Unlike many senior communities, we have licensed nurses on-site 24/7.
This round-the-clock clinical model makes all the difference. Extra hands available allows for quicker response times, better chronic condition management, and calm confidence when residents’ needs shift.
For you, that translates into:
- More meaningful time at the bedside, not just behind a desk
- A real sense of ownership over care decisions
- Chances to lead and teach in the moment
- Peace of mind knowing you’re never alone in your responsibilities
You’ll get to do the work you’re trained for, without losing the personal touch that brought you to nursing in the first place.
Specialized Memory Care That Goes Deeper
If dementia care speaks to your heart, you’ll find a rare opportunity here.
Our two memory care neighborhoods—Connections and Haven—are thoughtfully designed for every stage of memory loss.
As a nurse, you’re an essential part of that journey. We provide you with specialized training and tools that help you support residents with skill, sensitivity, and compassion.
As a nurse here, you’ll receive:
- Specialized dementia care training
- Opportunities to engage in personalized care planning
- Tools and support for managing behaviors with compassion
- Exposure to best-in-class approaches for late-stage memory loss
Great memory care requires not only clinical skill but also emotional presence, and our nurses exemplify both.
Collaborating Across Departments for Whole-Person Care
At The Kensington White Plains, nurses are never isolated in their work.
Instead, they are part of a deeply collaborative team that includes life enrichment coordinators, dining services, physical therapists, memory care specialists, and more.
Daily interdisciplinary communication ensures that every resident receives care that addresses their physical health, emotional, cognitive, and social needs.
Nurses participate in:
- Care planning meetings that integrate multiple perspectives
- Conversations with culinary teams about dietary changes
- Coordination with activity teams to support residents’ engagement goals
- Close communication with families to align on preferences and updates, one that honors each resident’s whole self.
Career Growth in a High-Acuity Setting
Many nurses assume that working in a senior living community means less clinical complexity.
But at The Kensington White Plains, our high-acuity model often mirrors hospital-level care, without the red tape.
Nurses here manage:
- Diabetes and insulin support
- Oxygen therapy and respiratory needs
- Complex medication regimens
- Wound care and post-surgical recovery
- Hospice and palliative services
For nurses seeking RN careers in senior living that challenge and expand their skill set, The Kensington White Plains offers both opportunity and purpose.
Strong Relationships With Residents and Families
In fast-paced clinical settings, it’s easy to feel like you’re just moving from task to task. At The Kensington White Plains, things are different.
Our nurses foster genuine relationships with residents and their families.
You’ll gain insight into life stories, personal preferences, and emotional cues, enabling you to provide truly individualized care.
These relationships lead to:
- Deeper trust between care partners and families
- Better advocacy during health changes
- More meaningful daily interactions
- A rewarding sense of connection
This is what clinical care in senior communities should feel like.
Work-Life Balance and Emotional Support
We know that nursing is physically and emotionally demanding. That’s why The Kensington White Plains makes team wellness a priority.
We support our nurses through:
- Predictable schedules with input into shift preferences
- Emotional wellness initiatives
- Peer mentorship and team camaraderie
A leadership team that checks in regularly, not just about performance, but about how you’re doing.
You’ll never feel like you’re doing this work alone. You’ll be surrounded by people who genuinely care about residents and each other.
