Salary Range: $20.00 To $29.00 Hourly

LICENSED PRACTICAL NURSE (LPN)

Job Summary

There are four basic categories of LPN duties—clerical, administrative, clinical, and specialist. Depending upon the medical practice, the same LPN may do one of these categories, or all four of them.

Reports To

The Practice Coordinator for business-related items, and to the medical practice physician(s) for clinically-related items.

Essential Functions

Clinical LPN Duties

Clinical LPN job duties involve working with patients in a clinical context, assisting physicians during procedures, and performing light medical procedures. Because of the responsibilities that come with medical practice, the clinical medical assistant duties are regulated differently from state to state. LPNs are always required to be supervised by a physician.

The basic duties of LPNs include:

Taking patient vital signs; recording in the patient’s medical record

Taking medical histories; recording in the patient’s medical record

Preparing patients for medical tests and examinations

Explaining medical procedures to patients

Administering topical, oral, or intramuscular medications

Administrative LPN Duties

Administrative LPN duties are less directly involved with patients, and more involved with the general running of the medical practice. Administrative LPNs work with patients in the context of scheduling appointments and handling billing functions.

Maintaining the confidentiality of patient information

Managing inventory and ordering supplies

Following up on patient visits

Checking the patient portal and responding to patients

Ordering lab tests and imaging studies

Clerical LPN Duties

Clerical LPNs perform many of the same duties as administrative LPNs, but with less emphasis on medical records and patient information. Clerical LPN duties focus more on the business aspects of running a medical practice. They are similar to administrative assistants in typical office settings, managing the day-to-day office activities that keep an office running smoothly.

Some clerical LPN duties might include:

Specialist Medical Assistant Duties

Required Skills

Because LPN duties are so varied, a very flexible skill set is needed to perform them well. These skills and personality traits are recommended:

Ability to multi-task various job duties

Ability to handle different personalities and personal situations—both patient and coworkers

Ability to understand the theories, reasons, and technical aspects of medicine

A formal education from an accredited LPN; licensure required
