A Registered Practical Nurses (RPN) also known as a Licensed Practical Nurses (LPN) is some one who usually has twelve months to two years of training in anatomy and physiology, medications, and practical patient care. LPNs can perform simple as well as complex medical procedures, but must operate under the supervision of either a professional Registered Nurse (RN) or a physician. They can administer most medications (usually with the exception of IV push medications), perform measurements (blood pressure, temperature, etc), record-keeping, help with patient-care planning, surgery, first aid, CPR, sterile and isolation procedure and basic care.

Hope that helps!! :)
