Local TV station just announced on news last night that big hosp in Asheville no longer hiring LPN's and will begin Phasing Them Out ( all 35 of them currently on staff). Local CC having to offer LPN students a way to blend into ADN program to complete their training.
As a former LPN, I had heard this threat for 40 years, but it is now becoming a reality! Pretty much, an LPN's only choice will be LTC's.. Don't think LTC's will stop hiring LPNs as they get paid less, and we all know LTC's are about filthy lucre.
Pretty much think other hospitals in other cities will follow suit if they haven't already started this trend.
