LPN Magic with The Nurse Sam

Adrianne Behning
About this episode
This week we’re shouting-out the magic of Licensed Practical and Licensed Vocational Nurses with @TheNurseSam. She and Adrianne are bringing you the hot tea on this often-underappreciated group of professionals including what the LPN role entails, how Sam came to be a proud practicing member and, later, a successful entrepreneur helping countless nursing students.

This episode is intended to show students, nurses, and the public alike that LPNs have an important place in healthcare, and the LPN program is one of many paths into the profession. Sam also shares her experiences with her own health issue and how it gave rise to her business helping students study for exams with pop culture artwork.
