Nursing Career Paper

A career is something you love to go to work for, while a job is something to help get the bills paid. My career is a LPN ( Licensed Practical Nurse). I love and care for people while they're sick, and that’s what a LPN is a person that love and care for someone when they’re sick and that’s what my career is. A LPN is a nurse. They administer medicine and injections, and take vital signs such as blood pressure, temperature, and weight.Perform a variety of tasks under the supervision of a Registered Nurse, that's the definition of a LPN.
Some things that made me interested about this career. That something is not the money, even though the starting salary is $18.75 per hour/ $41000 annual, but the way the nurses corporate and help with the illness patients. I also like the way that LPNs just don't work at nursing homes, they also work in Hospitals, Doctor Offices, Medical Offices, and Home Health Care. LPNs are able to choose their work schedules which meet their needs, so you have time for your family and kids. My grandmother was also an LPN, she was my role at that time when I was young, so I always wanted to follow in her footsteps and that's another thing that made me interested in this career.
I learned from my research from the Senior Project that LPNs are able to enter into professional careers much faster than people who choose many other job
