A Day in the Life of a Field Nurse (LPN)

As an LPN in home health care, you play an essential role in visiting patients in their homes to ensure they receive high-quality care that meets their specific needs. When meeting with patients, you provide hands-on nursing skills, including injections and wound care while ensuring equipment and materials are prepared correctly. You also teach your patients appropriate self-care techniques, so they are able to have some control over their own health. Through communication with RNs and case managers, you provide updates on each patient and clarify information when instructions are unclear.

In addition, you aid RNs or physicians in performing specialized procedures and duties as well as carrying out any oral or written instructions that come your way. To ensure the safety of your patients, you practice infection control and universal precautions. When needed, you report any forms of abuse and take appropriate action according to state and federal guidelines. Always reliable and punctual, you maintain regular attendance to complete your day-to-day tasks and submit any documentation regarding clinical notes and driving records. You find great satisfaction knowing the work that you do in home health care makes a difference in the lives of so many!
