A brief introduction to the Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) career. Produced for the US Dept. of Labor.
Certifications and Licensing
All candidates must pass a national exam the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX-PN) in order to obtain licensure as a licensed practical or vocational nurse. Most states employ the title of licensed practical nurse (LPN) while a few states use licensed vocational nurse (LVN). However the job responsibilities and licensure requirements are the same. Several states accept a multistate version of the license called a compact license which allows practical nurses to practice in any participating state.
Job Flexibility
Full-time versus part-time:
Most practical nurses are employed full time. As nursing is needed around the clock in most facilities nurses often work evenings and weekends. They may also have extended shifts. Some nurses work per diem or on call which can provide more flexibility.
Work location:
Most practical nurses work in hospitals. Others practice in nursing homes medical offices and schools. Those employed by home healthcare agencies spend considerable time in patients' homes.
