Can an LPN work as a CNA in Arizona?

Published

I cannot find any jobs right now with the exception of CNA's. Legally, can I work as a CNA while I finish the RN program as an LPN?

After visiting the AZ nursing board website, I would say yes. Go to the site, look under "resources" on the left side, the first listed, advisory ....., scroll down until you find the topic called something like "dual profession and dual license....." They talk about policies concerning an RN working as an LPN, etc. If an RN can work as an LPN, it stands that either can work as a CNA. Do a more careful search of the website, or call them and ask.
