    Vocational Nursing is a respected, rewarding career that allows you to help people each and every day while you earn a great living.
    The simplest route to becoming a nurse is to enroll in a vocational nurse program.
    In Texas and California, the basic nursing career is called a licensed vocational nurse (LVN), but in other states it is called a licensed practical nurse (LPN) . Most vocational nursing programs can be finished in one year which is a great choice for people interested in a fast track to a nursing career
    Licensed vocational nurses can also advance their careers by applying their LVN certificate toward the Registered Nurse bridge program.
    About 28 percent of LVNs worked in hospitals, 26 percent in nursing care facilities, and another 12 percent in offices of physicians.
    Others worked for home healthcare services, employment services, community care facilities for the elderly, public and private educational services, outpatient care centers, and Federal, State, and local government agencies; about 1 in 5 worked part time.
