You can have a job at any LTC in the area. Any. Pay varries, but I'm told it isn't that bad. Get a year or so in and if you do agency it is great $$$

I know Magee still has LPNs, not sure what other hospitals still do.

What parts of town are you looking in?

Congrats on graduating. I just got accepted to St Margarets SON, LPN to RN program. I start in February.

If you are looking for jobs they are out there especially in Long-term care facilities. There is also TCU and Subacute units that you can do. I work agency and have been fulltime agency for almost 5 years. But usually they want you to have at least 1 year experience for agency.Where do you Live?

if you are looking for hospital then there is the TCU @ Passavant, Magee and McKeesport Hospital. Check the Sunday paper and the Employment guide, there is always ads for healthcare in there.

Good Luck to ya.
