Charge Nurse (LPN) Reviews
What is it like working as a Charge Nurse (LPN)?
October 2015
Ok.
Charge Nurse (LPN):
Pros: The residents. Being able to visit with them when I have time.
Cons: Not having enough time to spend the one on one time with them. Everything is so rush rush anymore with all this new technology. I feel it takes away from the actual human touch/care.

March 2015
Horrible working conditions.
Charge Nurse (LPN):
Pros: My patients and co-workers.
Cons: No raises in 6 years. No incentives. No reviews. Management will not help if we are short staffed. 35 patients to 1 nurse. No support. Residents are allowed to physically and verbally abuse the staff. Old broken equipment. No isolation equipment ever. To much more to list.
February 2015
The hours and they constantly change.
Charge Nurse (LPN):
If you have no experience and are fresh out of nursing school, don't specialize in one field. Get your feet wet in one specialization and learn how to work somewhere else and becom specialized in that field. My 1st job was a dialysis nurse but once I was comfortable there, I got a job at a nursing home to learn how to work as a nurse and learn to charge. Nursing homes are the only places that I know of where you can learn the art of charging others. Once comfortable there, I sought and obtained a job at a hospital on med/surg floor where I learned how to manage 1-7 patients in an acute setting where I could actively start IVs, IV drips, manage IV pumps etc.
February 2015
Limited job oppurtunities in my area.
Charge Nurse (LPN):
Need to be proactive, be prepared to do a lot of teaching, especially with your staff members, have confidence in yourself, learn everything you can, don't be afraid to ask questions.
