🎙️ Just a Sharp Scratch: The Extra Dose — International Nursing Mini-Series Episode Title: Borderless Care: Elizabeth’s LVN Journey
In this episode of our international mini-series, we head to the heart of Texas to meet Elizabeth Espinoza-Rodriguez, a Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) whose career spans hospice care, ambulance response, and community-based nursing.
Elizabeth shares her inspiring journey into the world of vocational nursing, offering insight into what it means to be an LVN in the U.S. healthcare system. From fast-paced emergency work to the emotional depth of end-of-life care, her experience reflects the diverse and essential role LVNs play across settings.
We also explore how the LVN role compares to the Nursing Associate role in the UK — highlighting the similarities, the differences, and the shared passion at the core of nursing worldwide.
🌍 One world, many nursing voices — this is global nursing through the eyes of those living it.
