LPN's are not terminal. Hospitals are not going to be employing as many of them as they have in the past however, with that stated there are other places to work as LPN's including, clinics, Dr's offices and sameday patient surgery locations. There are hospitals however that will hire LPN's from ECPI and they will pay for them to go back to school for their RN as long as they work for them. I hope this bit of information is helpful to you! Have a great day and good luck!
