Licensed Practical Nurse Jobs in Arizona: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a licensed practical nurse in Arizona?

To become a licensed practical nurse in Arizona, you must complete an accredited practical nursing program, pass the NCLEX-PN examination, and obtain an active license from the Arizona State Board of Nursing. Most programs are offered through community colleges across the state, such as those in the Maricopa County Community College District. Arizona also participates in the Nurse Licensure Compact, meaning nurses holding a compact license from another member state can practice in Arizona without obtaining a separate Arizona license.

How much do licensed practical nurses make in Arizona?

Licensed practical nurses in Arizona earn a median of about $77,070 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $61,050 for the lowest 10% to over $89,850 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.

Which companies hire licensed practical nurses in Arizona?

Employers hiring licensed practical nurses in Arizona right now include Maxim Healthcare, ANGELS CARE, and MGA Homecare, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Arizona's large integrated health systems and its growing network of skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities make it one of the more active states for consistent LPN hiring throughout the year.

Which Arizona cities have the most licensed practical nurse jobs?

Phoenix, Tucson, and Scottsdale have the most licensed practical nurse openings in Arizona. Phoenix dominates the market as the state's largest metro, anchored by major health systems and a dense concentration of long-term care facilities, while Tucson's openings are driven by its regional hospital systems and the University of Arizona Health Network, and Mesa's suburban growth has produced a significant cluster of outpatient and skilled nursing positions.

Are there remote licensed practical nurse jobs in Arizona?

Yes, but they're rare. About 8% of licensed practical nurse openings tied to Arizona are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, which reflects the hands-on, bedside nature of most LPN work. The small share of remote roles that do exist tends to involve telephonic triage, care coordination, or utilization review positions rather than direct patient care.

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

The most realistic entry path is applying directly to long-term care and skilled nursing facilities, which consistently hire new graduates across Arizona and often offer structured on-the-job orientation. Banner Health and Dignity Health run new-graduate support programs at several Arizona facilities, and the Arizona Department of Corrections Health Services regularly hires LPNs at the entry level. Candidates with a current Arizona State Board of Nursing license, a completed clinical rotation in a relevant setting, and a CNA or medical assistant background have a measurable edge over applicants without any hands-on patient care history.

Where can I find and apply to licensed practical nurse jobs in Arizona?

You can find and apply to licensed practical nurse jobs in Arizona on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from employers actively hiring in the state. Search the available roles, find the ones that match your experience and preferred setting, and apply directly to the positions that fit.
