Licensed Practical Nurses (LPN) are some of the most sought after members of the medical community. Their gifts for patient interaction and quick action make them the eyes and ears of the hospitals and clinics all across the nation. While doctors and registered nurses are often considered to be the foot soldiers in the campaign against illness, it is the LPN’s who truly serve in the front lines.
At the end of the day, LPN’s have more regular contact with patients than almost anyone else. LPN’s perform all sorts of necessary duties, from taking vital statistics to the preparation of injections and other medications.
