TITLE

   

Licensed practical nurses (LPNs) often work in nursing homes and other long-term care places. Patients in these locations often live there. In nursing homes, LPNs get to see their patients every time they work. They often form friendships. LPNs give people their medication, help them stay clean, and make sure they are eating and drinking well. In rehabilitation centers, LPNs help patients stick to their exercise plans so they can get stronger.
