There are many "magazines" for LPNs. This is the only educational "JOURNAL" out there. The level of education in this Journal is amazing.

It is the gold standard for LPN practice. I think it is wonderful.

I hope all LPNs that are serious about quality educational material for their practice will check it out. There are many magazines that offer the fluff stuff, but for LPNs serious about clinical care, this is the only one. The level might be too high for LPNs that don't maximize their practice and just put in their time. The "magazines" would suffice I guess. But it is terrific for LPNs that do hands on clinical care! Thanks JPN!

I have been a subscriber to the Journal of Practical Nursing for nearly two years. Perhaps it would be helpful for readers to know the difference between a Journal and a Magazine. JPN brings timely articles on practice, regulation, and educational issues important to Licensed Practical Nurses and Practical Nursing educators. Every issue has continuing education credits and articles about pending regulation and new innovations in practice and education. I'm not sure how the previous reader perceived it as a newsletter. The Journal is published in full color on glossy paper and is professionally printed and contains professional content.

When the term "magazine" is used to describe a publication, I expect just that, a "magazine". Instead, this is just a newsletter that has an inflated opinion of itself. Info was not particularly useful, as I am interested in new procedures, treatments and medications. The mark was missed on this one. I'm sorry I spent the money.
