Certified Registered Nurse Practitioner Jobs in Pennsylvania: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a certified registered nurse practitioner in Pennsylvania?

Becoming a certified registered nurse practitioner in Pennsylvania requires completing a graduate-level nursing program, earning a Master of Science in Nursing or Doctor of Nursing Practice with a nurse practitioner specialty, then passing a national certification exam through ANCC or AANP. You then apply to the Pennsylvania State Board of Nursing for CRNP licensure, which includes documenting your education, national certification, and a collaborative agreement with a licensed Pennsylvania physician for prescriptive authority.

How much do certified registered nurse practitioners make in Pennsylvania?

Which companies hire certified registered nurse practitioners in Pennsylvania?

Employers hiring certified registered nurse practitioners in Pennsylvania right now include Lehigh Valley Health Network, Heritage Valley Health System, and Nulton Diagnostic, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Pennsylvania's concentration of large academic medical centers, regional health systems, and federally qualified community health centers means demand for certified registered nurse practitioners remains steady across multiple specialties and practice settings throughout the state.

Which Pennsylvania cities have the most certified registered nurse practitioner jobs?

The cities with the most certified registered nurse practitioner openings in Pennsylvania are Beaver, Allentown, and Philadelphia. Philadelphia and Pittsburgh drive the largest share of openings because of their dense networks of academic medical centers, specialty practices, and multisite health systems, while smaller cities like Allentown and Harrisburg reflect significant regional hospital growth and expanding community health infrastructure outside the major metros.

Are there remote certified registered nurse practitioner jobs in Pennsylvania?

Yes, but they are rare. Nurse practitioner work is fundamentally hands-on, so fully remote positions represent a small portion of the total market. About 0% of certified registered nurse practitioner openings tied to Pennsylvania are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, and the roles most likely to offer remote flexibility are telehealth consultations, behavioral and mental health visits, and care management or utilization review positions that do not require physical examination.

How can I get hired as a certified registered nurse practitioner in Pennsylvania with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is applying for a new graduate nurse practitioner residency or fellowship program, several of which are offered by large Pennsylvania employers including UPMC and Penn Medicine. These structured programs are designed for newly certified practitioners and provide supervised clinical rotations across specialties. Candidates who completed clinical hours in Pennsylvania facilities, hold a current CRNP license from the State Board of Nursing, and have RN experience in acute care or primary care are consistently prioritized in competitive entry-level applicant pools.
