Eye infections are not much cause for worry, but they can be a bit of a nuisance. A dog that paws at his eyes or scratches it against surfaces can make the infection worsen. Sometimes there may be no symptoms of a dog eye infection at all.
The basic responsibility of the LVN nursing is to make certain client's needs are met. When the LVN cannot meet these needs then s/he is expected to immediately contact the doctor or other professional who can meet with the patient. Of the many important duties the nurse performs is the taking of vital signs.
The crux of the job is to provide basic nursing care to patients, while working under the supervision of a registered nurse or doctor. State regulations may put restrictions on what duties an LPN/LVN can perform or how much RN and physician supervision is required. Licensed practical nurse training typically covers a wide variety of topics, such as pediatric nursing and emergency care, so LPN/LVN graduates can be well-versed in all areas of their job.
