Thank you, thank you thank you for this video. It was definitely inspiring and I no longer feel discouraged about taking the LPN route to get to where I want to be I want to be in leadership and I really feel like having some nursing experience would help. These are inspiring women and I’m definitely going to be following them.
As a transition Nurse i agree with being able to handle and be educated in how to handle mid acuity patients as a LPN. Now in the ICU as a RN, I knew about 70% and had practiced such skills at previous jobs. as a LPN. And i learned to go back and get my RN because the pay was a huge difference. Skills went far for me.
Rn student here with two semesters left. Honestly the stuff we get taught is so useless aside from the practical courses. It’s just a bunch of fluff courses. I have 2 semesters left and no one has taught me how to run an IV line yet but I can tell you about Lewins theory of change ❤️
They’ve been talking about phasing LPN’s out since the 70’s. It will never happen. As long as the industry doesn’t adequately cater to RN’s, then they’ll never be able to do it. It will be even more difficult now that there’s a physician shortage and that shortage will become even worse by 2026. More RN’s are leaving the bedside and getting advanced degrees or leaving it period. Leadership will never get it.
Please listen to these ladies One of my closest friends is an LPN she does everything and gets paid. She was making up to $100 hr. During Covid giving Covid shots. Before Covid and after Covid she’s getting paid. But please only become a nurse if you are compassionate and are called to it Too many people are getting into nursing for the bag and not for the patient and it shows
I have been an LPN for 21 yrs. My initial goal was RN but I began life. Coming from a family of nurses: mother LPN to ADN, sister LPN to ADN to BSN to DNP, I know that they have been phasing LPN's out since 1980s. Reason why my mother went back to school. At 52, I'm trying to find a bridge online but I don't feel threatened of being a LPN.
Nah there's def a difference in roles. I'm a ER RN and a LPN can not do what i do just due to scope of practice. There's a difference not just in pay. Are LPNs important HELLLLL YES but there is a clear difference
Serious question here and no disrespect intended, but how does an LPN oversee an RN? That doesn't make sense due to the scope of practice. I'm guessing it just depends on the work environment? I only know the hospital, so that may be why it doesn't make sense to me. But to me, that's like a PA overseeing a physician or a pharmacy tech overseeing a pharmacist.
No disrespect taken at all! In the role I mentioned, I served as the Regional Director of Wellness, overseeing Assisted Living Facilities (ALFs) and Memory Care (MC) -not hospitals or skilled nursing settings. I was well-versed in state regulations and had worked my way up to a leadership position at the corporate level. The RN I supervised operated at the community level, which reflects the unique structure of these roles. In fact, within these settings, LPNs and RNs often function interchangeably according to regulatory guidelines. I hope this clarification helps!
Hi! Eunice described her work environment in the video, hopefully you got to that part. It makes sense to me, and she doesn't work in a hospital setting. Management is a very fluid setting and it doesn't mean that because someone has a seemingly 'higher' degree, that someone else can't manage them. Hope that helps!
@morgansandiego Hi! She explained it in the comments above when she responded to me. In the hospital setting management is not fluid in the clinical sense, which is why I was confused. She cleared it up. Thanks!
Lpn student here 4 weeks left ❤
Congratssss!!! Have you been applying to jobs?
@@morgansandiego no I didn’t know I should already before I take my nclex
@@987chavonyes ma’am you can and congratulations on your new success. I’ve been an LPN since 11/23

This is cool. I like that you interview nurses at all levels.

We did discuss in the episode that LPNs do have a different practice scope, thank you so much for your comment and weighing in on the discussion!
Thank you for this I’m so conflicted on whether I should go for my LPN then bridge to RN or do the accelerated bsn program 😅
What’s your long term goal ? GO THERE FIRST ❤❤
Great Interview!❤

RN reporting to LPN lol this one right here 😂
LVNs never delegate to RNs, they work as a team no matter the environment.
LPNs cannot delegate to an RN and I thought LPNs can only get low acuity patients or stable patients.
@@kennetheaddy8200you are absolutely correct 🖤
I have seen where MAs supervise LPNs. That made no sense to ke either.
I needed this thank you ladies 💖🩷💝
