I am going to start an LPN training program. In order to get a certain type of financial aid (WIA), I need to interview two LPN's. Does anyone want to anwer a few questions?

What company do you work for?

What department or position?

Do they require experience to hire LPNs? If so how much?

Is there a dress code?

What are the physical demands?

What is the starting wage?

Are there health benefits?

What is your job description?

Thanks so much for your help. I just got my acceptance letter in April, and I've had to put all the financial aid together in less than a month because the classes start May 12th. I'm going to Upper Valley Joint Vocational School LPN program, in Miami County Ohio.
