LPNs are expected to report changes in client condition, administer medications, take vital signs, and provide input into planning care. Initial assessments are typically the responsibility of RNs or advanced practice nurses, and LPNs do not supervise RNs, as RNs have a broader scope of practice and more advanced education.
