LPN

ADVANTAGES OF BEING AN LPN

� There is a lot of advantages of choosing to be an LPN. (Licensed

Practical Nurse.) But, there are a few that really stand out to me and those

are, they work close to a doctor. They provide bedside care to the

residents/patients. They answer patients calls, take vital signs like

temperature; blood pressure; pulse; and respirations. They make sure that

their patients are comfortable and well taken care of all the time. They

also get to get the patient ready for testing, and they get to deal with

tubing like inserting catheters.

BEST CAREER FOR ME.

� I think the best career for me will have to be an LPN because, it

cost less to go to school and takes less time to get. I really probably

will not be able to handle it if I see a newborn baby die. LPN has so

many good things about it. It sounds more like my area.
