PennCare RNs are responsible for ensuring that
our patients have a positive experience at
our practices. With compassion, our RNs interact
with our patients and their families to respond
to their individual needs. From being knowledgeable

information to practice staff, advising about office
policies and triaging after physician consultation,
our nurses have a special place within our practice
environment.
An associate's degree or a bachelor's
degree in nursing and RN licensure is required.

Licensed Practical Nurses (LPN)
The LPNs who practice with PennCare are exceptional

patients have a positive experience. From administering
prescribed medications, injections and vaccines and
reading PPD results, to performing EKGs, screening
tests such as spirometry, audiometry, and vision
testing after properly preparing the patient and
accurately documenting the results, their skills
are highly valued and respected.
Our LPNs are valuable to our providers in the exam
room with medical procedures such as positioning
patients, wound cleaning and dressing, assisting

a resource to medical assistants.

to patients regarding medical care is crucial
to the role of medical assistant.
