  • Title: Caught in the middle. A profile of licensed practical nurses in home care.
    Author: de Savorgnani A, Haring RC, Galloway S.
    Journal: Caring; 1992 Sep; 11(9):12-3, 15-6. PubMed ID: 10119928.
    Abstract:
    Licensed practical nurses are the smallest major segment of the home care industry, providing services with registered nurses and home care aides. Although they report high job satisfaction, LPNs are caught at a middle stage in the health care system. With new demographics, labor market considerations, and recruitment experiences, this report points out the discrepancy between the stalled LPN status and their industry growth.
