The licensed practical nurse (LPN) provides nursing care to assigned patients under the direct supervision of the registered nurse (RN) or other assigned supervisor and accepts delegation from the RN/assigned supervisor in meeting the needs of the patient/family. The LPN collects data through observation and communicates information to assist the RN and/or provider in patient assessment and care planning. The LPN participates as a member of the health care team and accepts delegation from the RN/assigned supervisor and provider in meeting needs of the patient/family.

The LPN delivers care in accordance with the patient care plan, policies and procedures of the organization and principles of relationship-based care. The LPN possesses excellent communication skills; is skillful in mentoring and instructing; and may participate on committees or projects, including quality improvement projects.

Primary Care patient services include health care for existing medical needs, preventative care, acute care, and management of chronic health conditions. Care is provided through in-person visits, phone, video and web-based care. LPNs in all primary care practices are valued members of the interprofessional care team, collaborating with physicians, advanced practitioners, non-licensed allied health professionals, registered nurses, and student learners. Primary Care locations offer a fast-paced, team-oriented environment that allows LPNs to work closely with an interdisciplinary team while building meaningful, long-term relationships with patients.
