Nursing practice in the U.S?


are nurses allowed to insert nasogastric tubes?

Yes. Inserting nasogastric tubes is a common job for both LPNs (licensed practical nurse) and RNs (registered nurse).

Yes, all the time, every day...

I'm guessing LPN or LVN not ,
But RN , yes .

I am posting so I can track and check back to see what the med pros say !

Both LPN's and RN's insert all the time.
