Hospice Registered Nurse Jobs in Arizona: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a hospice registered nurse in Arizona?

You become a hospice registered nurse in Arizona by first obtaining your RN license through the Arizona State Board of Nursing, which requires completing an accredited nursing program and passing the NCLEX-RN exam. Arizona participates in the Nurse Licensure Compact, so nurses licensed in other compact states can work in Arizona without obtaining a separate license. Most hospice employers in Arizona then expect at least one year of clinical experience before hiring into a direct hospice role.

How much do hospice registered nurses make in Arizona?

Hospice registered 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 hospice registered nurses in Arizona?

Employers hiring hospice registered nurses in Arizona right now include Optum, Angels Care Hospice, and Hospice of the Valley (AZ), based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Arizona's large network of faith-based and nonprofit health systems alongside national hospice chains gives the state a broad employer base with ongoing hiring across Phoenix, Tucson, and surrounding communities.

Which Arizona cities have the most hospice registered nurse jobs?

The Arizona cities with the most hospice registered nurse openings are Tucson, Phoenix, and Yuma, reflecting the concentration of older adult populations and the large health systems and dedicated hospice organizations that serve them. The Phoenix metro dominates overall volume because of its size, but Tucson generates steady demand through its own network of regional medical centers and home health providers.

Are there remote hospice registered nurse jobs in Arizona?

Yes, but they're rare. Hospice nursing is primarily a hands-on, in-home role requiring direct patient contact, so remote work is limited by the nature of the job. About 18% of hospice registered nurse openings tied to Arizona are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, and those positions tend to be in telephonic triage, case management oversight, or clinical documentation review rather than direct patient care.

How can I get hired as a hospice registered nurse in Arizona with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is completing a medical-surgical or home health RN role first, as Arizona hospice employers consistently hire from those backgrounds. Banner Health and Dignity Health both run new-graduate nursing residency programs in Arizona that can lead into palliative care rotations. Earning the Certified Hospice and Palliative Nurse credential early signals commitment to the specialty and gives less experienced candidates a clear advantage in Arizona applicant pools.

Where can I find and apply to hospice registered nurse jobs in Arizona?

You can find and apply to hospice registered nurse jobs in Arizona on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings across the state. Search the roles available, find the ones that match your experience and preferred location, and apply directly to the positions that fit.
