My Life as a Licensed Practical Nurse

by Fran Moskowitz

At the ripe old age of 30, I headed back to the classroom­ – me who barely squeaked by with a “C” in H.S. But I wanted to be a Nurse, so I headed for the Vocational Education and Extension Board (VEEB) where I would be in a classroom and a hospital setting for a year. Okay I can do this. It was hard, but I was lucky I didn’t have to work so I could just concentrate on school work and the clinical rotations. I was in the class year of ‘90-­‘91. I was proud, I was happy. I loved taking care of my one patient. I graduated and sat for my boards which I passed. I was now licensed by the State of New York. I went from SPN to LPN. I had a job at SNCH and reality set in. I didn’t just have one patient­ I had 10! There was no more taking the time to really be with the Pt. I hated it. This was not what I signed up for. I lasted a year in the hospital setting, and then found a job in a multi­specialty facility or as it was known: Doc in the box. I loved it! Here I was able to speak to the Pt find out how they were really doing. I drew blood; I ran the CBC & counted the WBC. Asthma Pt­nebulizer treatment; Diabetic­finger stick; sore throat­ Throat culture; Physicals for school, work, DOT, EKG’s, UAs­we did it all! The Motto­if we didn’t know how to do it- we learned it! I became certified in ACLS & BLS. BLS was fairly easy, ACLS not so easy, but I had people to help ­- we were a team in the same boat.

The company went through many changes, but the staff stayed, doctors changed but the work stayed the same. It was almost 10 years when they closed and off to another office I went to­this time as a practice manager who worked the floor and trained staff. My boss sent me to St Louis where I became a certified Breath Alcohol Tech (C­BAT) and instructor. Upon my return I taught my staff, and they were then C-BATs. When the office shut its doors, I moved on. I worked as a gastro nurse, Psych nurse, Pedi nurse/supervisor, Hedis nurse, school nurse, Urgent care nurse. If it was out there I did it and if I didn’t know it I did everything in my power to learn it.

After 20+ years I decided I did not want to do patient care anymore. I wanted to be a forensics investigator nurse. The only thing that stood in my way­ I am not an RN. I looked into going back to school, until one night I saw an ad on Craig’s list. It was for a medical malpractice insurance company. I would work with attorneys to help decide whether the suit brought against the Dr had any merit and investigate what happened to the patient . This was my dream job. This is what I wanted to do. I know the medical terminology, but I’m not a lawyer, But, I can learn the law in how it applies to my job.

It’s been 4 years since I’ve walked through the doors of where I am presently employed and I am very happy. There are a lot of attorneys, insurance people and RNs, I am proud to say I am the only LPN. The reason they took me was because my background was so diversified­if I had worked in just a nursing home for the last 20 years I would not gotten the job. But I am valuable, but most of all I feel valued. Just because you may not be an RN doesn’t mean you aren’t valuable­if you have the opportunity to learn something­ – take it, you never know when it might come in handy.

Remember, while you are working make sure your handwriting is legible, your I’s are dotted and T’s are crossed, because if you get sued, that chart will be your best defense (or worst defense if it is not legible or complete) who knows, I might be the investigator/rep assigned to your claim.

I am an LPN, which stands for Licensed PROUD Nurse. I am licensed, I am a Nurse and I am PROUD.

    This is a very inspirational article — showing once again the value of hard work and applying oneself. This LPN never hesitated to learn new things, and it seems she made good use of the saying “When one door closes, another opens.” She states at the end of her story that she is proud to be doing what she does. I’m sure her family, friends, and patients must be proud as well!

    My ex-husband and I had always managed to stay friendly after our divorce in February 2017. But I always wanted to get back together with him, All it took was a visit to this spell casters website last December, because my dream was to start a new year with my husband, and live happily with him.. This spell caster requested a specific love spell for me and my husband, and I accepted it. And this powerful spell caster began to work his magic. And 48 hours after this spell caster worked for me, my husband called me back for us to be together again, and he was remorseful for all his wrong deeds. My spell is working because guess what: My “husband” is back and we are making preparations on how to go to court and withdraw our divorce papers ASAP. This is nothing short of a miracle. Thank you Dr Emu for your powerful spells. Words are not enough.

    THIS IS REAL. I REPEAT, THIS IS REAL. The black mirror is real, the black mirror is really powerful, effective and 100% reliable. My name is Walter Brian, I want to thank Dada Magical for giving his black mirror to me. Since he gave me his black mirror, I became rich, successful, protected, informed and powerful. I was browsing through the internet one day when I saw multiple testimonies on how Dada Magical has helped so many people with his black mirror. I thought it was a joke at first but I gave it a try and contacted him. He sold the black mirror to me and told me how to use it and all that I need to do. I followed the instructions just as he told me and to my greatest surprise, it worked just as he told me. The black mirror is still working for me. The mirror also brings good luck, blessings and information. Contact Dada Magical now on his email; Dadablackmirrors@gmail.com and he will help you also with the black mirror just the same way he helped me. Thank you Great Dada Magical.

    Dr. Salem thank you so very much for helping to reunite me and my partner! I didn’t think we would ever be able to work things out with all that had happened between us. But you wouldn’t let me be negative and you really did get my lover back for me! Thank you again so much! We are happy and planning a vacation to celebrate our engagement. Without you and your help, I know this would not have been possible. E-mail: salem manifest lover spell @ gmail. com https://65a1c79f02ded.site123.me

    My name is Sarah, and I live in Austin, Texas. I want to share an incredible testimony about how Dr. Zaza helped me bring my husband back home. In 2020, during the challenging times of the COVID-19 pandemic, my husband had to relocate to another state for work, leaving me and our two girls at home. After the pandemic, he hesitated to return home and was involved in a relationship with a coworker for nearly two years, which left me and the girls devastated. Thankfully, a friend introduced me to Dr. Zaza, and that was the turning point in my life. When I reached out to Dr. Zaza, I was astonished when my husband returned home just three days later. He confessed everything, and we were able to reconcile. Since then, we have been living joyfully and harmoniously. contact her on email: drzazaspiritualhome@gmail.com and WhatsApp number +2349074392372. I am immensely grateful to Dr. Zaza for everything.

    I lost my marriage after 2 years and it was a horrible experience for me. My wife left me and my son and everything happened beyond my control and I never knew few people around me engineered my wife and turned her against me just because I choose to build my family and focus more on it. I had to seek help because I know I did not do anything to have my marriage crashed. Dr Isikolo helped me and a lot was revealed to me on what transpired. He cast a love reunion spell that bonded my wife and I back together and the whole evil my family did against me was revealed.
