6. Why do so many people insist that LPN'S AREN'T REAL NURSES!!??

   kristen3g3tp8 replied to RNsoon!'s topic in LPN/LVN

   I agree that you're still making a difference in patient care... but, it seems as if many of the "little-perks" have gone by the way-side. You know, the back rubs, long conversations, and overall time with each individual patient. With the ratio of p...
