Get to know Licensed Practical Nurse, Doris S. Pyle, who lives in Kokomo, Indiana.

Doris is a licensed practical nurse who is currently retired and living in Kokomo, Indiana.

During her active years as a nurse, her areas of expertise covered long-term care and geriatrics. Long-term care is a variety of services which help meet both the medical and non-medical needs of people with a chronic illness or disability who cannot care for themselves for long periods; whereas geriatrics is a specialty that focuses on health care of elderly people and one that aims to promote health by preventing and treating diseases and disabilities in older adults.

Throughout her many years in practice, she maintained a remarkable commitment to the ethical and professional standards of her work.

A licensed practical nurse (LPN) provides routine care for the sick or injured. They work under the supervision of doctors and registered nurses, performing duties such as taking vital signs, collecting samples, administering medication, ensuring patient comfort, and reporting the status of their patients to the nurses. 

LPNs are generally hired in smaller settings, such as nursing homes, home health environments, and rehabilitation centers. They must be skilled in balancing care for patients and completing practical daily administrative tasks.
