Probably 8 years ago, I spent time at a Planned Parenthood as a Medical Assistant through a temp agency. I loved it. At the time, MA's did the back office work - rooming and vitals, fingersticks for rh and hemoglobin testing, prep for pap smears, etc. LPN's worked in the post-abortion recovery room. But since I became an LPN, they seem to have stopped hiring LPNs and gone exclusively to MA's. Many offices do this for financial reasons, but it is disappointing. I applied for a job anyway, hoping to get in with my past experience at PP as well as past experience as an MA. But now I'm overqualified. Everything about the hiring process is done online now, so its hard to talk to a real person and I kept getting redirected.This is my personal experience - its still worth applying in your area if that's what you want to do. This is what you may face, though.

Hello,
I will officially be a new graduate lpn in July. I live in the state of NC. Does anyone know if planned parenthood hires LPNs? Thanks
