Firstly, it clarifies the leadership role of LPNs in the healthcare setting, and then identifies the knowledge, skills and abilities related to leadership, management, communication, culture change and person-directed care concepts. It also explains the efficacy of these concepts related to the LPN care of patients in the work setting and reviews the Nurse Practice Act (NPA) enacted in every US state. LPNs play an essential role in the patient care team and we have to ensure they receive advanced education as practitioners in healthcare settings that reach vulnerable populations such the elderly. They have been considered as the registered nurses? right hand in acute care as well as many home-health settings. They provide basic medical and nursing care, ensure the comfort of patients, discuss health care with patients, and report the status of patients to registered nurses and doctors. But the LPNs are often expected to take on a real leadership role based on the perception that as licensed nurses they already have all the qualifications and education necessary for leadership roles. However, there is a gap in the education they receive and a limited body of literature dedicated to them. Written in honor of all LPNs, this educational textbook fills that gap. With learning objectives, review questions and scenarios, it is a valuable resource for courses for undergraduate students training to be LPNs. . 606 $aNursing?Study and teaching 606 $aNursing administration 606 $aCritical care medicine 606 $aPalliative treatment 606 $aNursing Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H41040 606 $aNursing Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H41013 606 $aIntensive / Critical Care Medicine$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H3100X 606 $aPalliative Medicine$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H74000 615 0$aNursing?Study and teaching. 615 0$aNursing administration. 615 0$aCritical care medicine. 615 0$aPalliative treatment. 615 14$aNursing Education. 615 24$aNursing Management. 615 24$aIntensive / Critical Care Medicine. 615 24$aPalliative Medicine. 676 $a610.7365 700 $aKruschke$b Cheryl$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0787908 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300288403321 996 $aLeadership Skills for Licensed Practical Nurses Working with the Aging Population$91756071 997 $aUNINA
