LVN Jobs in Santa Teresa, NM

A Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN), also known as a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), plays an integral role in the healthcare industry by providing basic patient care. Their responsibilities typically include monitoring patient health, administering basic care such as changing bandages or inserting catheters, reporting patient status to registered nurses and doctors, and maintaining health records. They often work under the supervision of registered nurses (RN) and doctors and can be found in numerous healthcare settings such as hospitals, nursing homes, and private residences.

Important skills for an LVN include strong communication and organizational skills, attention to detail, physical stamina, and compassion. Typically, an LVN must complete a state-approved educational program which usually takes about one year. After completing their education, they must then pass the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX-PN) to obtain their license. Prior to becoming an LVN, individuals often gain experience in healthcare by working as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) or a Medical Assistant, which also provide opportunities to learn about patient care and medical procedures.
