LPN Jobs - Licensed Practical Nurse Job

An LPN or Licensed Practical Nurse provide basic patient bedside care. LPNs measure and record the patients vital signs to include weight, height, temperature, blood pressure, pulse, and respiratory rate. Licensed Practical Nurses also prepare and administer injections, monitor catheters, dress and care for wounds, provide patients with alcohol rubs and somtimes massages. A primary function of an LPN is to keep patients comfortable. This means the LPN can assist with bathing, dressing, and personal hygiene, moving in bed, standing, and walking. Experienced LPNs and Licensed Practical Nurses may often supervise other care givers such as nursing assistants, aides, orderlies and other less experienced LPNs.

LPN Jobs are for generalist nurses who will work in any area of health care, some LPNs work in specialized settings, such as nursing homes, doctor's offices, or in home care. The growth in LPN Jobs is expected to be driven by the long term care needs of our increasing elderly population and the general increase in demand for healthcare, medical and nursing home services.
