RN in Long-Term Care

Nurses General Nursing

Published

I have a question on this pls.I am a new RN graduate and considering a Long-term care facility. In this facility, most of the nurses are LPNs( no beef with that at all), but in order not to step on toes or have mine stepped upon, I'd like to seek advice from other RNs who have worked in this system.

How does it work?I mean, no offence intended, but I'm absolutely certain, that I may not like being delegated to by an LPN, to me, that's like a role reversal. What are your opinions, suggestions and thoughts on this pls?

Specializes in Mostly LTC, some acute and some ER,.

A nurse is a nurse. RN/LVN is the scope of practice, and level of education.
