- Private duty LVN’s care for a single patient in the home or hospital and may do general housekeeping as well.

Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVN’s) work in hospitals, both public and private, in nursing and convalescent homes, in medical clinics and for health service agencies, government agencies such as the Peace Corps, and in the military. Some are self-employed working through nursing agencies for private duty service.
