attention SNF Dons

Hi I am an RN in Florida and work in a SNF. I would be interested in feedback regarding whether or not there is a trend to hire LPNs only as floor nurses. I am not interested in getting into management, and am looking for some feedback so I can decide if I should stay where I am.

I am in Virginia and at my facility I have both RN's and LPN's as staff nurses. I have an RN as a Unit Manager and an LPN as a Unit Manager. I have an RN in MDS and an LPN in MDS. I have a Supervisor who is an LPN and am seeking a weekend supervisor who is an RN or LPN. It does not matter to me what the "title" is in any of my positions...; I am interested in a compassionate, knowledgeable nurse who takes his/her job seriously and is dedicated to providing quality of care.

I am a sup at a SNF/long term/sub-acute (it has many descriptions). The only LPNs are on staff. For anything higher than that, a BSN (or in school for it) is required. There are no 'unit leaders'. The charge Nurses can be LPNs, if no regular staff RN is on (which is oftern the case). We have nurse managers (unit specific- weekdays), and evening, nigh and weekend sups. BTW the RNs and LPNs do the same thing.
