I have been an Lpn for 17 years. I used to work in the Er in Western NY untill I moved by New York City. I was the first LPN in the ER back home and helped to write what they could and couldn't do. At first the RN really gave me a hard time untill they learned my skills and what i was like by the time i left the ones that gave me the hardest time actually would rather work with me than some of the newer Rn.........anyway I must of showed them that LPN could work in the ER cuz after I left they created 4 positions for LPN's instead of my one. I would just like some feedback on how all of you feel regarding LPN'S in the ER. I am going to be going to move to the Greenville are in S.C. and was wondering if anyone from that area knows if they have LPN's in the ER's or if not any ideas on how to approach the hospitals about trying LPN's in the ER as I really love ER and miss it.
