The Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) provides professional nursing care for residents of all ages in long‑term care, under the supervision of a registered nurse, advanced practice provider, or physician. The LPN demonstrates knowledge of nursing principles for the resident in the relevant clinical setting and practices within the full scope of nursing expertise, using appropriate age and population‑specific standards related to the physical and psychosocial needs of the resident as per the care plan.

The LPN evaluates data reflective of the resident’s status, recommends solutions, and responds effectively to assist in an emergent situation. The LPN ensures the health, comfort, and safety of residents, contributes to the assessment of residents, administers medications or treatments as ordered, and provides technical support to healthcare professionals as needed. The LPN documents resident interactions and outcomes related to resident care, medication, behavior, activity, and dietary, and maintains effective working relationships with residents, healthcare providers, and the public.
