The good news is that thousands of LPNs around the country support themselves and their families through this line of work./p>p>The a hrefhttps://www.bls.gov/oes/current/oes292061.htm target_blank relnoopener>U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics/a>, or BLS, reports that LPNs earned a median salary of $54,620 per year in 2022. This translates into $26.26 per hour, which is over two times the federal minimum wage. Compensation varies by location and by industry or setting. For example, LPNs who worked in doctors offices in 2022 earned around $48,300 per year; those who worked in government facilities earned $57,200 per year; while those who worked in assisted living and nursing centers earned $56,830. Remember that benefits like health insurance are compensation too, and some jobs offer better benefits than others./p>/div>/div>/div>div itemscope itempropmainEntity itemtypehttps://schema.org/Question>h3 classfaq-title itempropname>How Easy Will It Be to Find Work as an LPN?/h3>div itemscope itempropacceptedAnswer itemtypehttps://schema.org/Answer>div itemproptext>p>After going through all of that training, passing the NCLEX-PN, and a href/lpn-license/how-to-get-an-lpn-license/>getting your LPN license/a>, the last thing that you want is to be left a href/career-guide/job-hunting-tips-for-lpns/>searching desperately for a job/a>. Fortunately, that shouldn't be an issue, as LPN jobs are plentiful across virtually all markets./p>p>In fact, according to the BLS, there were approximately 632,020 jobs for Licensed Practical Nurses in the U.S. in 2022. The agency projects that a total of 787,400 LPN jobs will be added between 2019 and 2029, representing an increase of 9 percent. Now is therefore an excellent time to get in, as you should be able to find gainful, full-time employment regardless of where you are located. This is another reason why so many start out their nursing careers as LPNs./p>/div>/div>/div>div itemscope itempropmainEntity itemtypehttps://schema.org/Question>h3 classfaq-title itempropname>Can I Easily Advance in Nursing as an LPN?/h3>div itemscope itempropacceptedAnswer itemtypehttps://schema.org/Answer>div itemproptext>p>Like many aspiring LPNs, you might have a plan to eventually move into registered nursing. In either case, becoming an LPN serves as a stepping-stone on the journey to the highly rewarding career of an RN. Within the field of licensed practical nursing itself, there are many areas of specialization to explore. You are likely to find yourself gravitating to some more than others as you gain more experience./p>p>If you opt to become an RN, you might want to complete a bridge program to get there more quickly. You can complete an a href/career-advancement/#adn-path-to-become-an-rn>LPN-to-ADN/a> bridge program to earn your associate degree in nursing, or ADN, in as little as 18 months. For even more opportunities in the future, you should complete an a href/lpn-bridge-programs/lpn-to-bsn/>LPN-to-BSN/a> bridge program to earn your bachelor of science in nursing in as little as two to three years. With a BSN in hand, many new doors will open for you, and it will be easier to move into even more advanced roles in the future./p>/div>/div>/div>div itemscope itempropmainEntity itemtypehttps://schema.org/Question>h3 classfaq-title itempropname>What Traits Are Useful for a Career as an LPN?/h3>div itemscope itempropacceptedAnswer itemtypehttps://schema.org/Answer>div itemproptext>p>If you are thinking about becoming a Licensed Practical Nurse, the right training program will get you where you need to be. With that said, naturally possessing certain traits will make the training easier and the work more enjoyable in general. In particular, it helps to have a genuine desire to assist others in need. Compassion is a must, as you will be dealing with people who arent feeling well much of the time./p>p>In addition to enjoying working with patients, you should be a detail-oriented person to ensure that you stay on top of your a href/job-description/#typical-lpn-duties>daily duties/a>. It helps enormously to be a capable communicator, as you will be interacting not only with patients, but also with other healthcare professionals throughout the day. Stamina and endurance are also essential, as you will be on your feet for hours on end throughout a typical shift. To succeed in a career as an LPN or in nursing in general, its also vital to be a driven, focused person who doesnt leave things unfinished./p>/div>/div>/div>div itemscope itempropmainEntity itemtypehttps://schema.org/Question>h3 classfaq-title itempropname>Where Can I Find Jobs as an LPN?/h3>div itemscope itempropacceptedAnswer itemtypehttps://schema.org/Answer>div itemproptext>p>Like many people, you might be under the impression that LPN jobs are mostly limited to nursing homes and assisted living facilities. While the majority of LPNs do indeed work in a href/work-environments/#lpns-in-elderly-nursing-care>such settings/a>, these professionals find employment at many other facilities and places too. In fact, LPNs in some settings tend to earn more than LPNs in others, so if you are primarily concerned about making a good living as an LPN, it pays to explore the possibilities./p>p>According to the latest available figures, 35% of LPNs work in nursing and residential care facilities. The second most popular setting for LPNs to work is hospitals, which account for 15% of all LPN positions. These include private, public, and state hospitals. Finally, 12% of LPNs work in doctors offices, and 13% of LPNs work with home healthcare services, which means that they visit patients in their homes rather than working in an actual facility. This segment is growing rapidly as more aging baby boomers enter their golden years but arent quite ready for full-time nursing care./p>/div>/div>/div>div itemscope itempropmainEntity itemtypehttps://schema.org/Question>h3 classfaq-title itempropname>What to Look for in an LPN Training Program?/h3>div itemscope itempropacceptedAnswer itemtypehttps://schema.org/Answer>div itemproptext>p>Looking for an LPN training program can be a daunting task. A lot is on the line, as the quality of the training you receive will directly impact your ability to pass the licensing exam and obtain your license. First and foremost, it is crucial to select a program that is approved by your state. For your school, look for an accreditation by either a hrefhttps://www.acenursing.org/ relnoopener target_blank>ACEN/a> or a hrefhttps://www.aacnnursing.org/CCNE relnoopener target_blank>CCNE/a> at the bare minimum./p>p>Choose an LPN program that is convenient for you. If you will attend on campus, select a location that is easy to get to. If you will mostly complete your studies online, make sure that the program you choose offers convenient clinical training options, or you will have a hard time completing that requirement. Naturally, it is important to choose an LPN school that fits your budget. Many programs offer scholarships and other financial aid, so be sure to check into such opportunities./p>/div>/div>/div>div itemscope itempropmainEntity itemtypehttps://schema.org/Question>h3 classfaq-title itempropname>Can I Complete My LPN Training Online?/h3>div itemscope itempropacceptedAnswer itemtypehttps://schema.org/Answer>div itemproptext>p>Although a href/online-lpn-programs/>online LPN programs /a>are readily available, it is important to understand that they cannot be completed entirely online. This is due to the clinical training requirement. All LPN training programs include in-person, hands-on clinical training. Typically, this training is conducted at local healthcare facilities. Naturally, there is no practical way to complete this portion over the internet, so even online LPN training programs have offline components./p>p>When looking for online LPN training, seek programs that are conducted asynchronously. This means that students work independently to complete assignments by a certain deadline, which gives them the flexibility they need to attend to their other responsibilities. Find out exactly how the clinical training portion is handled as well. Some schools automatically assign students to clinical training assignments, while others expect them to line up these opportunities themselves. Make sure that you can easily fulfill the clinical training requirements of the program you choose. Without passing this portion, you will not successfully complete your LPN training and will not be able to sit for the NCLEX-PN./p>/div>/div>/div>/div>/div>/section>section classhs-6>div classcontainer>div classbordered-heading>h2>span>From the Blog/span>/h2>/div>div classtext-center>p>Check out these popular posts from our blog!/p>/div>div classblog-index>div classitem>picture>source classlazy srcset# data-srcset/images/small/8-signs-you-are-a-licensed-practical-nurse.webp typeimage/webp>img classlazy src# data-src/images/small/8-signs-you-are-a-licensed-practical-nurse.jpg alt8 Signs You Are a Licensed Practical Nurse width250 height167>/picture>div classcontent data-mhctn>h2>a href/blog/8-signs-you-are-a-licensed-practical-nurse/>8 Signs You Are a Licensed Practical Nurse/a>/h2>/div>/div>div classitem>picture>source classlazy srcset# data-srcset/images/small/8-character-traits-of-successful-licensed-practical-nurses.webp typeimage/webp>img classlazy src# data-src/images/small/8-character-traits-of-successful-licensed-practical-nurses.jpg alt8 Character Traits of Successful Licensed Practical Nurses width250 height167>/picture>div classcontent data-mhctn>h2>a href/blog/8-character-traits-of-successful-licensed-practical-nurses/>8 Character Traits of Successful Licensed Practical Nurses/a>/h2>/div>/div>div classitem>picture>source classlazy srcset# data-srcset/images/small/7-essential-apps-every-lpn-needs.webp typeimage/webp>img classlazy src# data-src/images/small/7-essential-apps-every-lpn-needs.jpg alt7 Essential Apps Every LPN Needs width250 height167>/picture>div classcontent data-mhctn>h2>a href/blog/7-essential-apps-every-lpn-needs/>7 Essential Apps Every LPN Needs/a>/h2>/div>/div>/div>/div>/section>section classcta cta-home>div classcontainer>div classbordered-heading>h2>span>Find LPN Programs Near You/span>/h2>/div>div classtext-center>p>Becoming an LPN is easier than you probably think!
