Some kids need a nurse who notices everything. Be that nurse.

Our children are medically fragile. Many breathe with a trach or vent and eat through a G-tube. Some can't tell you when something's wrong, so they count on you to see it. On day shift, you're there for the moments that matter: morning care, therapy, school, play and progress.

You won't be thrown in.

Every new LPN gets 3+ weeks of hands-on training with experienced pediatric nurses before working on their own. No pediatric experience? We'll teach you.
