In New Jersey, LPN's can be nurse managers in Nursing Homes. The RN would be clinically in charge but scheduling and overall running of the unit would be up to the LPN unit director.

I want to work oncology but now I wonder if I made a right decision because so many of us work in critical care type of field.

BTY is it true that it takes 10+ year to really understand what's going on and get a big picture of things. I am afraid I started too late.

Well it all depends on what you were doing before nursing school, for myself I was in the ER and ICU as a TECH, so I was able to put things together while in school, once I was out of school it all became very clear to me. But I'm also learning every day at work. It usally it take about 3-5 for things to Click for it all to make sense..
