Breakdown Of LPN Jobs
In 2006 the United States Department of Labor Burea Statistics (USDL BLS) released statistics on the number of Licensed Practical Nursing, better know as LPN jobs.
The number of jobs almost reached 750,000. These jobs were spread across a number of health care sectors. 26% of these jobs were found in hospitals. 12% of the LPN jobs were found in physician’s offices.
Of the rest, the vast majority were positions in home health care services, residential care services such as homes for the learning disabled or profoundly handicapped, community care facilities such as homes for the elderly or nursing homes, outpatient care centers, local government agencies including both Federal and State agencies. Not all the LPN jobs were full time. Approximately 19% were part time roles.
These job statistics are however now 3 years old and need an update. However the expectation is that the overall demand for LPN jobs has increased rather than decreased.
