Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs)) are technically trained nurses, according to the Illinois Nursing and Advanced Practice Act. They practice nursing under the supervision of an RN or other health care professional. Registered Professional Nurses (RNs) are nurses who use their professional knowledge, judgment, and skills in the assessment and implementation of the nursing process to meet patient and family needs.
