Licensed Practical Nurse Jobs in Colorado: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a licensed practical nurse in Colorado?
You must complete an accredited practical nursing program, then pass the NCLEX-PN examination and apply for licensure through the Colorado Board of Nursing. Colorado participates in the Nurse Licensure Compact, so nurses with a compact license from another member state can practice in Colorado without obtaining a separate state license. Once licensed, you maintain it through continuing education and periodic renewal as required by the Colorado Board of Nursing.
How much do licensed practical nurses make in Colorado?
Licensed practical nurses in Colorado earn a median of about $73,880 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $50,820 for the lowest 10% to over $84,440 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire licensed practical nurses in Colorado?
Employers hiring licensed practical nurses in Colorado right now include Maxim Healthcare, Optum, and Ernest Health, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Colorado's largest health systems, long-term care networks, and federally qualified health centers across the Front Range account for the majority of consistent openings.
Which Colorado cities have the most licensed practical nurse jobs?
Denver, Aurora, and Fort Collins have the most licensed practical nurse openings in Colorado, reflecting where the state's largest hospital campuses, long-term care facilities, and outpatient networks are based. Denver anchors the market as the state's primary medical hub, while Colorado Springs and Aurora support high volumes through their own major health systems and growing suburban populations.
Are there remote licensed practical nurse jobs in Colorado?
Yes, but they're rare. About 20% of licensed practical nurse openings tied to Colorado are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, since most of the role involves direct hands-on patient contact at a care site. The small share of remote work in this field tends to involve telephone triage, care coordination, or case management roles that allow licensed practical nurses to support patients without an in-person visit.
How can I get hired as a licensed practical nurse in Colorado 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 and offer structured orientation programs. UCHealth and Centura Health run nurse residency and transition-to-practice programs in Colorado that welcome candidates with limited clinical hours. Positions titled nursing assistant, medication aide, or patient care technician often serve as direct stepping stones, and holding an active Colorado practical nursing license or compact license gives any entry-level candidate an immediate edge.
Where can I find and apply to licensed practical nurse jobs in Colorado?
Migrate Mate lists current licensed practical nurse openings across Colorado, from Denver and Colorado Springs to smaller Front Range and rural communities. Find the roles that fit your experience level, care setting preference, and schedule, then apply directly to each one through the listing.
