LVN Urgent Care Jobs Overview
With nearly 15,000 urgent care centers in the country, serving more than 200 million patients annually, the availability of LVN urgent care jobs is likely not going to shrink anytime soon. (Outside of California and Texas, LVNs are called licensed practical nurses, or LPNs.)
People who have non-life-threatening conditions tend to prefer the convenience and cost-effectiveness of urgent care versus an emergency department. On the flip-side, as a healthcare practitioner that works in a walk-in clinic, you may prefer having a less intense work schedule that still allows you the opportunity to provide essential care services.
If you’re looking to find a new career opportunity in an urgent care setting, IntelyCare can help you find your next full-time, part-time, or per diem position today. You can also check out similar roles such as outpatient LVN jobs and ER LVN jobs.
LVN Urgent Care Education and Certifications
To work in urgent care, you must have completed an accredited licensed vocational nursing program and hold a LVN license in good standing.

Resume and Cover Letter for Urgent Care LVN Jobs
A strong application is key to catching an employer’s attention. California and Texas are the states with the highest Hispanic/Latino populations, so if you speak Spanish, be sure to include that on your LVN resume.
Aligning your qualifications to the needs of the position is another way to show that you’re the best candidate for the job. So, if an ad says the urgent care facility is hoping to hire an LVN who “acts as a patient advocate under the direction of the RN,” use that phrase on your resume.
In your LVN cover letter, you may write about how you have collaborated with an RN to advocate for patients, ensuring they received the best, most appropriate care. This is a great strategy that draws a direct connection from the job’s needs to your skill set.
Interviewing for LVN Jobs in Urgent Care
As a nurse, you know how important it is to make your patients feel like they can trust you. In a job interview, you want to impart the same feelings to a potential employer. Demonstrate your professionalism by delivering your answers in a thoughtful, assured manner. It can help to review typical urgent care nurse interview questions and practice your answers in advance.
