Hello fellow LPNs especially in BC, Canada! Well FYI i just hired as fulltime-fullscope LPN in the hospital at TCU. At first I don't know what will be the job of LPN in acute-TCU. I think we're still in the trial period having 6 stable pts doing med admin except IVs, care + bath (including bed making), calling Drs, pharmacy, etc., charting, vital signs, dressings, distribute meal trays + collecting them back to the cart, feeding, taking Drs order, admissions, discharge, emptying hampers, re-stocking linens, etc. It is a very challenging role for us. RNs eventually will be doing same as we're doing plus the supervisory job and taking care of critical pts. What can you say about the load? Thanks. :chair:
