Hi, this LPN deal must be everywhere. I have been an LPN since 1985, lost my job in the OR a year ago, in RN school now, but at 48..it's tough for me..so if you have the chance go to RN school..Have a great day & be blessed. I am from Alabama

I work 3rd floor med/surg at DRMC. They are now in the process of making LPN's primary's. We will have to do head-to-toe assessment's and chart them. Right now we pass med's, do procedures, change patients, etc. They are giving us more responsibilities. They just opened 2 positions for LPN's in the GI Lab, and LPN's work in Dr. Office's, LTC and HH. Starting rate is around $10 in Dr. office's, $13 in LTC and hospital and about $17 in HH. Good Luck!

Specializes in Med-Surg.

I'm a recent grad in S.C. Pa, the hospitals aren't hiring except Hershey and that's for the clinics. I got a job in peds homecare, good money and great work. There's a lot of openings, even got one of my clasmates to come over.
