i need some advice ! please help me


quick question. im going to school for medical assisting, im going to be done next october. NOW i was thinking about going for my LPN but i dont want to work with adults and seniors, i just want to work with kids. I was thinking about being a pediatrician, its SO much schooling but hey im willing to do anything for my career. i would like to work in a pediatric's office. can LPN'S and RN'S work in a pediatric's office? does the pay decrease?

Yes, LPNs/RNs can work in a pediatrician's office. Finding LPN/RN positions there is the challenge--many places opt to use a lot of MAs.

Also, the pay would probably be less than what you'd get at a hospital...at least it's this way where I live.
