Let's phase out anymore posts with this line, been there done that. All it does is make people mad. We are here, we aren't leaving. :nono:

This debate was going on when I started nursing school in 1971, and is still going strong. LPN's are a valuable resource, that will be here long after I retire. CNA's will always be needed, by whatever name they are called. There are needs for multi levels of care. I think all of our jobs in health care are secure. Now whether hospitals can continue to make a profit and pay us is another issue!
