Re: Hard to get specialty area jobs??
The OB unit where I work at likes to utilize LPNs as scrub techs for c-sections and also uses them to work the floor as well. Occasionally we have openings in Peds and in the ER for an LPN but the best shot is on our Medical unit, Surgical Unit, and OR. Our outpatient psych unit has a couple LPN's as well. At a neighboring hospital they hire LPN's for their Med/surg and Cardiac PCU, Neuro Trauma PCU, and on the general pediatrics unit. However, most of these specialty jobs are only open to LPN's with at least 1 year of Med/Surg experience, I'm hoping to get my year in and transfer to either a cardiac stepdown or the neuro trauma stepdown unit.
