Where are the LPN Jobs?

I'm a nurse with over 3 years experience, mainly in mental health, and LTAC. I cannot find a job! I live in Acadiana Parish and have been looking for good work from Lake Charles to Baton Rouge and everywhere in between. I have been unable to find work anywhere. I'm trying to find work to at least save enough to go back for my RN.

Does anyone know of any LPN jobs?

How is the RN job outlook on this area?

The LPNs in NE Ohio are being let go or sign a contract to get their RNs in a certain time frame. The ADNs are having a hard time finding jobs. They want BSNs up here. Plus we are in a highly saturated area so any nursing positions are hard to come by......

I have been a LPN for 5 years in the New Orleans area. The LPN jobs are slowly and surely fading away :( Im in the process of getting my pre req for the LPN to RN program at Delgado Charity program. Seems as tho we LPN's have no choice. It's time to move on. Good luck with your search. If your willing to travel, this area has many jobs but the pay isn't great unless your PRN or Agency.

If it's a job you're looking for, you might consider looking around on indeed.com, craigslist, etc. instead of a nursing forum. Your yield would most likely be greater on those sites IMO
