LPN VA Jobs


I hear the VA's hire LPN's and pay is pretty good. I also heard it can be rough to work in those places. Thoughts? ...Jac

The VA is not one of the higher paying workplaces. However, they offer some of the most wonderful benefits and retirement due to being a government entity. When I was living in California, the VA in West Los Angeles was starting new LVNs off at $17 per hour. I now live in Texas, and the Dallas VA Hospital starts new LVNs at $31,000 per year.

OK, after 2 months (and almost to give up), I was pleasantly surprised and was called to interview at the Air Force Base Clinic/Hospital here. What should I study to prepare me for the interview? Any medical questions or more questions on how I would react to certain situations? Thanks for the help!
