To the future Lpn Students (that would be me)..hopefully!

I set up a forum trying to getting replies from actual LPN's that are working and have been recent grads the past few yrs. Go to site map and click LPN/LVN forum and the title is "LPN ILL plz read and reply...".. there was two replies and hope this would help some of us who feel a little lost on our career paths. Or just need better answers to some of our questions.

Hi, I live in IL but Im an LPN in MO. I think it is well worth it. People have been saying for years that LPNs are being phased out. But if you look in the newspapers LPNs run the LTC facilities. I've had about seven job offers alone. I currently work at a rehab center doing weekends day and evening shifts. They give me an extra 8hrs a week so i get me full time 80hr a pay period plus an extra $2/hr for working weekends. That's $20/hr for a new nurse. I love the pay and being off M-Fri
