LPNs/LVNs: What's Your Specialty?

Published

What's your specialty? In other words, in which field are you currently working? I'm currently doing LTC (long-term care) at a nursing home and have a PRN job as a medication nurse at a psychiatric hospital. I have worked in rehab, but it is not for me.

Specializes in Assisted Living Nurse Manager.

My specialty is clinic nursing. Cardiology, family practice, orthopedics, podiatry. I am also starting to work flex-time in a SNF. "Wish me luck"

I work LTC, which I like, but my passion is MR/DD. Quit my part time job at the group home d/t med safety concerns and a conflict with my "boss" (and I use the term boss VERY lightly), but hope to get back into MR soon.

I've been a nurse for 2 months. I work in a skilled/rehab unit and I've learned sooo much! I love this specialty!

Specializes in Med-surg, social services, education.

I'm a new LPN, currently I work in LTC because of the pay. I want to go into the hospital part time to get some med-surg experience.

With all honesty, I want to test the waters. I don't know as of yet what I like. Just passed boards 2weeks ago. I can hardly sleep because I have so many thought of specialties that I want to try. My weakness in school was labor and delivery and I want to try that to just to get some experience. All I know is that I want to be a well rounded nurse.

I worked as an EMT-4yrs, medical biller, A.S. psychology, HHA and want to go back to school for my RN someday soon.
