Licensed Practical Nurses function under the direction and supervision of a Registered Nurse, and/or a primary care provider, to provide care for clients in a variety of healthcare settings. The LPN works in a team relationship with other healthcare providers. The program is approved by the Maryland Board of Nursing (MBON).
