Nurses form the core of direct patient care, providing a range of services from administering medications and monitoring vital signs to educating patients and offering emotional support. Registered Nurses (RNs) have completed a bachelor's degree in nursing and passed a national licensing exam. They work in various settings, including hospitals, clinics, and home healthcare. Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) have completed a diploma or associate's degree program and play a vital role in supporting RNs by providing basic care and assisting with patient needs. Both RNs and LPNs offer a variety of specializations, allowing them to focus on specific areas like pediatrics, critical care, or mental health.
