Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) – Intermittent Home Health Visits
NextCare Providers LLC | East/West Valley
Pay: From $37 per visit
Job Type: Part-Time with Opportunity to Transition to Full-Time
Schedule: Primarily Monday–Friday
Visit Length: Approximately 1 Hour
Work Location: On the Road / Patient Homes
Looking for a Home Health Schedule You Can Build Over Time?
NextCare Providers LLC is looking for dependable and compassionate Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) to provide one-hour intermittent skilled nursing visits to patients throughout the Phoenix metropolitan area.
Whether you're looking for a manageable part-time caseload or your goal is to eventually build toward full-time, this position allows you to grow your schedule as compatible patient assignments become available.
All newly hired nurses begin on a part-time schedule, including nurses whose goal is full-time employment. As you complete onboarding, training, and begin working independently, additional recurring patients can be added to your schedule based on your availability, location, patient needs, and current agency census.
Our goal is to build consistent and sustainable patient assignments rather than immediately filling a nurse's schedule with visits that may not be geographically or operationally appropriate.
About NextCare Providers LLC
NextCare Providers LLC is an Arizona-based home health agency providing skilled nursing services to individuals and families in the comfort of their homes, including individuals receiving services through Arizona's Division of Developmental Disabilities (DDD).
Our care model is built around one-on-one, patient-centered nursing care and strong coordination between our field nurses, clinical leadership, scheduling, Quality Assurance, Human Resources, and administrative teams.
Home health nurses work independently in the field, but we don't expect our nurses to feel like they're on their own.
Our nurses have access to an established support structure that includes:
- Director of Nursing and clinical leadership for clinical guidance and escalation
- Scheduling support for patient assignments and coverage
- Quality Assurance (QA) for documentation and compliance support
- HR and administrative support for onboarding, credentials, training, and employee needs
- Ongoing nursing in-service education and training
- Patient-specific training and/or shadowing when appropriate
- Electronic systems to support organized communication and documentation
We believe quality patient care starts with nurses who have the training, resources, communication, and support needed to feel confident in the field.
What Are Intermittent Nursing Visits?
This position is different from traditional private-duty nursing or an 8- to 12-hour facility shift.
Instead, you'll travel to scheduled patients within your assigned service area to complete approximately one-hour skilled nursing visits.
During each visit, you'll provide the ordered nursing services according to the patient's plan of care, complete the required documentation, and then continue to your next scheduled patient.
Depending on the patient's needs and physician orders, visits may include:
- Medication administration
- Insulin administration
- Blood glucose monitoring
- Diabetes management
- Wound care
- Catheter care
- Patient assessments
- Medication management
- Monitoring and reporting changes in condition
- Patient and family education
- Other ordered skilled nursing interventions within the LPN scope of practice
How Scheduling Works
Our intermittent nursing model is built around recurring patient assignments and continuity of care.
Nurses provide their availability, ZIP code, preferred service area, and travel radius. We then work to match available patients with nurses based on those factors and the patient's established schedule.
Starting Part-Time
All newly hired nurses begin part-time, even when their goal is full-time employment.
Why?
Patient care depends on consistency. Building a full home health caseload requires matching multiple patients based on their authorized visit schedules, geographic locations, clinical needs, and the nurse's availability.
Starting part-time allows us to:
- Complete your onboarding and patient-specific training properly
- Introduce you to your initial patient assignments
- Establish consistent recurring visits
- Add compatible patients as they become available
- Build a more practical geographic route
- Avoid scheduling changes or delays that could negatively affect continuity of patient care
We would rather build your caseload appropriately over time than immediately assign patients simply to fill a schedule and later have to move those patients to another nurse.
Interested in Full-Time?
Let us know during the application and interview process.
Nurses interested in full-time employment can be prioritized for additional compatible patient assignments as visits become available.
For our intermittent nursing model, full-time generally requires approximately 40 visits per week.
The time required to build to a full-time caseload will vary based on patient census, geographic area, nurse availability, and compatible patient schedules. Therefore, an immediate 40-visit schedule cannot be guaranteed upon hire.
Nurses who prefer to remain part-time may maintain a smaller recurring caseload based on availability and agency needs.
Full-Time Weekend Coverage Expectations
Continuity of care doesn't stop when the regular workweek ends.
Nurses who transition into full-time status are expected to participate in weekend on-call/coverage at least 1-2 weekend per month.
This helps provide backup when unexpected call-outs or urgent coverage needs occur and reduces the risk of delayed or missed patient care.
Specific on-call and weekend coverage procedures will be reviewed before transitioning into full-time status.
Service Areas
Patient assignments are available throughout the Phoenix metropolitan area, including:
- West Valley
- East Valley
- Central Phoenix
Whenever possible, nurses are matched with patients based on geographic location and preferred travel radius.
During the application process, we'll ask for your home ZIP code and how far you're comfortable traveling so we can determine whether current or upcoming patients align with your preferred area.
What You'll Do
As an intermittent home health LPN, you will:
- Provide skilled nursing care in patients' homes according to physician orders and the established plan of care.
- Complete assigned one-hour visits within required scheduling windows.
- Perform ordered nursing interventions safely and within your LPN scope of practice.
- Complete accurate and timely documentation for every patient visit.
- Follow Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) requirements.
- Review and follow patient-specific care instructions.
- Monitor patients and appropriately report changes in condition.
- Educate patients and families regarding medications, treatments, disease management, and safety when applicable.
- Communicate professionally with patients, families, scheduling, administrative staff, and clinical leadership.
- Promptly communicate delays, call-outs, scheduling conflicts, or inability to complete an assigned visit.
- Report patient refusals, medication concerns, incidents, missed visits, changes in condition, and other clinical concerns according to agency procedures.
- Maintain HIPAA compliance, confidentiality, professionalism, and patient dignity.
- Participate in required agency training and nursing in-services.
- Maintain required licenses, certifications, and compliance credentials.
Communication & Documentation Matter
Because our nurses work independently in the field, communication and documentation are essential parts of this position.
We're looking for nurses who don't disappear once they leave a patient's home. Nurses are expected to remain responsive to appropriate clinical and administrative communication and keep the agency informed when something may affect a patient or scheduled visit.
Our team currently utilizes:
- WellSky/Kinnser for clinical documentation
- Microsoft Teams as a primary agency communication platform
- Electronic Visit Verification (EVV)
- Adobe electronic forms and signatures
- Gusto for HR and onboarding processes
Don't have experience with every system? That's okay. Training on agency-specific workflows will be provided during onboarding.
Applicants should, however, be comfortable using smartphones, applications, electronic documentation systems, and digital communication tools as part of their everyday work.
Article 9 Certification
Because NextCare Providers LLC provides nursing services to individuals enrolled with Arizona's Division of Developmental Disabilities (DDD), Article 9 Certification is required before independently working with applicable DDD members.
Don't Have Article 9 Yet?
You can still apply.
Candidates who otherwise meet the position requirements may complete Article 9 as part of their pre-employment requirements before receiving an independent DDD patient assignment.
Article 9 training provides education regarding the rights and protections of individuals receiving DDD services and the responsibilities of professionals providing their care.
Training can be completed through an approved provider. One option is Arizona Autism United Article 9 Training. Additional information and provider training resources are available through the Arizona Division of Developmental Disabilities.
Already certified? Great! Please be prepared to provide a current copy of your certificate during onboarding.
QualificationsRequired
- Current and unrestricted Arizona Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) license
- Current CPR/BLS certification
- Valid Arizona Fingerprint Clearance Card
- Article 9 Certification or willingness to obtain it before independent DDD patient assignment
- Reliable transportation
- Valid driver's license
- Strong communication and clinical documentation skills
- Ability to manage time effectively and maintain scheduled patient visits
- Ability to travel independently between patient homes
- Ability to work independently in a home health environment
- Comfortable using technology for clinical documentation, communication, and electronic forms
- Strong organizational skills and attention to detail

- At least one year of nursing experience
- Previous home health experience
- DDD/AHCCCS experience
- Experience working with individuals with developmental disabilities
- Intermittent nursing experience
- WellSky/Kinnser experience
- Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) experience
- Spanish or other bilingual language skills
Physical Requirements
This position may require standing, bending, reaching, and assisting with patient positioning, transfers, mobility, or other physical activities associated with providing nursing care in the home.
Nurses must be able to safely perform the essential functions associated with their assigned patients and communicate when additional assistance or support is required.

You may be a great fit if you:
- Enjoy providing one-on-one patient care

- Stay on top of your documentation
- Are comfortable learning and using technology

Home Health Nurse Jobs in Arizona: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a home health nurse in Arizona?
You become a home health nurse in Arizona by earning an Associate Degree in Nursing or a Bachelor of Science in Nursing, passing the NCLEX-RN, and obtaining licensure through the Arizona State Board of Nursing. Arizona participates in the Nurse Licensure Compact, so nurses licensed in other compact states can practice in Arizona without a separate application. Most home health employers then require at least one year of recent clinical experience before hiring.
How much do home health nurses make in Arizona?
Home health nurses in Arizona earn a median of about $99,500 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $70,540 for the lowest 10% to over $130,930 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire home health nurses in Arizona?
Employers hiring home health nurses in Arizona right now include Angels of Care Pediatric Home Health, CenterWell, and Enhabit Home Health & Hospice, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Arizona's concentration of large integrated health systems and dedicated home health agencies means openings appear consistently across the Phoenix metro and Tucson corridors throughout the year.
Which Arizona cities have the most home health nurse jobs?
Tucson, Phoenix, and Scottsdale have the most home health nurse openings in Arizona. Phoenix dominates due to its sheer size and the density of major health systems headquartered there, while Tucson's openings are anchored by Banner University Medical Center and a sizeable older population, and suburban markets like Scottsdale and Mesa reflect the high concentration of retirement communities in those corridors.
Are there remote home health nurse jobs in Arizona?
Yes, but they're rare. Home health nursing is a hands-on, patient-facing role, so fully remote positions make up a small fraction of openings. About 17% of home health nurse openings tied to Arizona are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, and those positions tend to be in telehealth triage, care coordination, or clinical case management rather than direct bedside care.
How can I get hired as a home health nurse in Arizona with little or no experience?
The most realistic path is completing a new-graduate residency program through a large Arizona employer. Banner Health and Dignity Health both run structured residencies that accept new nurses and rotate them through home health and community care tracks. Candidates who begin in medical-surgical or rehabilitation units build the assessment and documentation skills home health agencies prioritize. Holding an Arizona compact RN license and a BLS certification before applying gives candidates a clear edge over those still completing credentialing.
Where can I find and apply to home health nurse jobs in Arizona?
You can find and apply to home health nurse jobs in Arizona on Migrate Mate, which lists current Arizona openings from employers actively hiring right now. Find roles that fit your experience and location and apply directly to the employer through the listing.
