— Explanation · 中文詳解 —
LPN 的執業範圍包括給藥、常規護理技術與穩定病人的基礎評估。然而，入院評估（Admission Assessment）、護理計畫制定（Care Planning）與衛教（Education）通常屬於 RN 的專業責任，因為這需要臨床判斷與分析能力。
An LPN's scope of practice includes medication administration, routine nursing skills, and basic assessment of stable patients. However, admission assessment, care planning, and patient education usually fall within the RN's professional responsibility, because they require clinical judgment and analytic ability.

美國 LPN 角色界線明確；台灣無 LPN 職稱，護理師皆具同等學歷要求，但臨床會有資深與資淺的權責分配。
