   I didn't know lpn's can be scrub techs. Yea dialysis is not fun only because of the super long hours and it does not feel like I am using my nursing skills as much as I would like. I really am not into long term care for just different reasons. I did...

   jasnxs84 replied to jasnxs84's topic in LPN/LVN

   I totally agree! Why make it seem like I have no healthcare experience whatsoever and I was one of the most senior Medical Assistants in my facility. It is very frustrating and I dont understand why they are likr that with LVN/LPN because I know that...

8. Stressed LPN

   jasnxs84 replied to Tinamae's topic in LPN/LVN

   I understand how you feel but I work in dialysis and not in ltc or anything like that. Dialysis is a beast! You are on your own responsible for putting on your 4 patients, monitoring them during treatment, and taking them off treatment. All that does...

9. Medical clinic LPN

   jasnxs84 replied to Kristi Garner Blakely's topic in LPN/LVN

   I worked in a Family Medicine clinic for 10 plus years, but as a medical assistant and when I look at the description of LVN/LPN in a medical clinic it is the same stuff I did as a Medical Assistant. My best advice is ask questions, that is how you l...
