I look forward to doing this during the flu season and into the holidays. As you said it helps for extra money around the holidays. I was told I can self schedule also anywhere from 2 to 40/week. It is a national immunization corporation and wonder if this is what you do also, or are you hired through local or facility based clinics? This would be my first experience doing flu clinics.

I just finished hire paperwork with Mollen Immunizations. Do you like the company and how the clinics are set up?

I work in short-term rehab - lots of hip and knee replacements, hip ORIFs, and about half medical cases (s/p pneumonia, s/p urosepsis, s/p CVA).

We have a few LPNs that work at my hospital on the med-surg floors, but none in the ICUs. I worked with an LPN in the first ICU I worked at, but he was going to school to become an RN so our boss let him transfer in.

My mom was an LPN and she worked in the hospital, in doctor's offices, a methadone clinic, and assisted living.

The employee health nurses when I worked at Tyson were all LPNs.

Do you all welcome the added responsibilities that being an RN brings or are there some of you that are content to stay as an LPN/LVN and have no desire to move upward from there?

You may have to clarify your two part question, as at first glance it may sound a bit condecending.

I think if you read the question objectively that it's a genuine question without any hint of insult. I'm going through this very same thing so I would not insult any LVN/LPN or RN.
