"At Rio Grande City Nursing and Rehabilitation Center, our residents come first. Maintaining the quality of life through skilled nursing and rehabilitation is what makes us proud. Wound Care, IV Therapy, Respiratory Care, and an in-house rehabilitation team are a few select services that make our nursing home different. Unlike others who contract their therapists, Rio Grande City has an in-house and full-time therapy team. This means our residents see the same occupational, speech, or physical therapists daily, which builds a strong line of trust and rapport" as stated on their website. 

A licensed vocational nurse (LVN) is a job title specific to California and Texas. LVNs are known as licensed practical nurses (LPNs) in all other states. LVNs and LPNs work under the supervision of registered nurses (RNs) and physicians, providing bedside care to patients. 

LVNs are typically responsible for monitoring patients' vital signs, including their blood pressure, pulse, respiration, temperature, height, and weight. Other tasks that they are responsible for include giving injections, recording intake and output of foods and fluids, collecting samples for testing, maintaining equipment, dressing wounds, medication administration, and IVs - among others.
