Think about your current place of employment. What things are you not allowed to do, and why? More importantly, whose responsibility is it to do said things? Also you may want to think about a typical plan of care and its purpose.

Check with your BON and review the scopes of practice for RN and LPN and then compare the two. I'm sure the information is contained in the readings. It's probably just paraphrased in a way that you don't yet recognize.

If you've worked as an LPN, you know these answers. You just need to stop and think for a minute. It will come to you, then you can compare what you know to be true, to what is actually written in your nursing texts.
