Hourly:

Location: Kentucky

Hourly: $17.00 (new LPN, 0 experience)

Specializes in nurses assistant way back when....

Well, I tell you what, I'm southeast Ga (Savannah) and the lpns get paid pretty low here. It's crazy that southern IN and ky get paid pretty highly compared to GA when GA has a higher cost of living.

Oh, I'm originally from Lexington, and I remember lpn's getting paid pretty decent too. Here, they start out at 14 with no experience at a nursing home, hospital 13. I'm definitely going to have to move!!!

8 months of experience.

I work for a DME company, so I've got great 8-4:30 hours w/ no weekends.

After months and months of searching for a job ( my old LPN job was at a hospital and the other nurses caused me too much stress, and I REFUSE to work LTC!) I feel like I lucked out. I want to stay here forever!!!!

Yes there are CNAs. I do meds, treatments, average of 1 to 3 med-A patients, all other nursing tasks (rarely an iv, no more than 1 or 2 g-tubes, no trachs). There is 32 patients capacity total, so two nurses on day and eve, one at noc. 4 CNAs during the day, 3 in the evening, 2 at noc.
