Licensed Practical Nurse
Duties and Responsibilities:
Licensed practical nurses work
under the care of registered nurses and also physicians. They care for the people who are injured,
handicapped, and sick. Their duties include taking temperatures, blood
pressures, and pulses. They also give
vaccinations, change clothing, and help give the patients baths. They care for
anyone that is in a hospital, mental health care institute, rehabilitation
centers, and any medical facility.
Average Salary:
$16,000 - $23,000
Educational Requirements:
A high school diploma or GED certificate is not always
required, nut they do encourage. Licensed Practical Nurses don’t have all the
education required to become a nurse. Training programs are approved and
offered by the hospitals, vocational schools, junior colleges and private
schools.
Reflection: I would be interested in
becoming this because it seems like they
like to do a lot for other people and that’s something I like
