Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) Caregiver

Tribal, 2 Kwaaypaay Court, El Cajon, California, United States of America Req #14501

Friday, October 18, 2024

The ancestors of the Sycuan Band of the Kumeyaay Nation existed many centuries ago as a community of people...a Tribe living together, farming, hunting and fishing to survive.

Much has changed since that time. Today the Sycuan Tribe governs its Reservation, owns and operates a Casino and a Golf Resort, and owns a number of other business ventures in the San Diego Region.

One attribute that remains unchanged, however, is Sycuan's sense of community. Sycuan is more than just a business. Sycuan is a community of people working together toward a common goal. Whether you work in our state-of-the-art Casino, our beautiful Resort, or become a staff member in our Tribal Government division, you will be part of the Sycuan family.

Policy : Licensed Vocational Nurse must perform only duties that are within limitations of the scope of practice and in accordance with the guidelines stipulated by the Board of Vocational Nursing.

LVNs are responsible for maintaining clinical competence with regard to those skills and activities expected of a LVN. At no time should an LVN perform an activity in which he/she does not feel clinically competent or questions the legal scope of practice for that activity.
