(I-Canada-News.Com, June 12, 2012 ) La Prairie, Canada -- Licensed Practical Nurse Course has put together a load of information to help those looking to become a nurse, or more specifically a licensed practical nurse (LPN). The website lays out, in great detail, virtually everything that candidates need to know prior to making a decision on a course of action with respect to the field.
According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, the demand for LPNs has been on an upward trend over the last few years. That trend is expected to continue to grow by a rate of 14 percent over the next 3 to 4 years. Those looking to become a licensed practical nurse can expect to earn anywhere from $27,000 to $52,000 depending mostly on years of experience.
According to the website, students have to take basic LPN courses which include medical terminology, patient education, and some science courses including physiology, biology, anatomy and chemistry. Students are also expected to familiarize themselves with some areas of medicine which will be encountered at the workplace. Some of the areas are:
• Maternal-Child nursing – for getting an idea as to how to assist pregnant patients during pre and post-natal stages
• Pediatric nursing – to give students the proper training for delivering the proper care to children
• Geriatric nursing – for understanding how to effectively care for the elderly
• Psychological nursing – a course which helps the student get familiar with how to handle patients who suffer from mental illnesses
• Surgical nursing – to introduce future LPNs to how patients are handled during surgical procedures
During training, students are exposed to a variety of equipment while acquiring hands-on experience in various health care facilities.
The website also covers the top LPN schools for candidates to pursue their education. According to Licensed Practical Nurse Course, some of the top rated LPN schools are:
• Merit Technical Institute in New Jersey
• Chamberlain in Georgia
• Central School of Practical Nursing in Ohio
• And more…
The website states that there are many reputable LPN schools in the country, and that students should have no trouble finding one that fits both their budget and schedule needs.
