New grad LPN

[pabrid]

Hello Missouri Nurses!

I posted this inquiry previously, but I think it should have been in this particular area. I'm helping my son do research in regard to job opportunities for new grad LPN's in the Kansas City area (i.e. approximate salary ranges, the most likely facilities to hire new grads - acute care, LTC, etc.) My son will be graduating from LVN school here in L.A. in a few months, however, he is getting married next year and will be relocating to K.C. He previously lived and worked there for 6 years, but not in the health care field. There are an abundance of job opportunities here in Calif. due to the severe nursing shortage, and I would like to see him begin his career here, but his fiance lives in Missouri and I can understand his decision to relocate. He is visiting Missouri during his school break, and I suggested that he visit a few nurse recruiters. Any input would be greatly appreciated!
