   In the state of Georgia LPNs do most things RN’s do except give certain cardiac drugs, and hang blood(there are exceptions) but make about 5-7 dollars an hour less over all. $15.50-$22 an hr for LPN and $23-$30 an hr for RN. Medical Assistants and Patient Care Techs make $10-$16 an hr. CNAs make $7.25-$13 an hr.

   Again, I must encourage all of you to get your RN except you want to work in convelescent homes. Our RN’s get paid nearly $25.00 more an HOUR…now and again more. You have more say so over what you do and where you work. I’m nearly 58, have been an LVN for 35 years since life got in the way and I was never able to go back to school. I sure wish I had done it when I was young…I hope a name will remember this and go for your RN while you are young…you will make a lot more money!

   I’ve been an LVN for over 35 years. After 29 years on my job, they are saying we need our assessments signed by an RN and basically, we get called off when they don’t have time. This is horrible here in California. Except you want to work for lower pay in convelescent homes, don’t become an LVN. It’s value it to get your RN. If you can succeed at getting an LVN, you can get your RN. Go for it!
