Mariahas4kids: Hospice was your first job as an LPN? Wow, I think that's wonderful. I went to nursing school (LPN) specifically to work in hospice. I volunteered for a while but now my situation's not so great, I haven't worked much at all since getting my license in 2006. Good luck to you, AddieRN, maybe you should just go for hospice care now and see what happens, especially if you feel such a calling.
