As long as the LPN is working within their scope of practice and the hospital meets the guidelines required for Magnet Certification an LPN can work at a Magnet Hospital. There is a not a requirement for Magnet status that says you may not employ LPNs. Answer One: No, a LPN cannot work as a Nurse in a Magnet Certified Hospital. The ANA Magnet Organization does not define a roll nor recognize the existence of a LPN. An LPN can work in other capacities such as a Nursing Assistant, Janitor, Unit Secretary, or any other job that they are qualified other than a LPN.
