Lead the Future of Practical Nursing
Pima Medical Institute is seeking an experienced Registered Nurse to join our Practical Nursing (LPN) program as a Full-Time Classroom Instructor. This role is ideal for an RN who wants to transition from long clinical shifts into a stable, Monday-Friday academic position focused on teaching, mentoring, and shaping the next generation of Licensed Practical Nurses.

Clinical faculty manage off-site rotations, allowing you to focus fully on classroom excellence and student development.

Monday-Thursday: Lead classroom lectures and simulation-lab instruction using the approved Practical Nursing curriculum (8:00 AM-5:00 PM).
Friday: Facilitate open-lab practice, provide one-on-one tutoring, reinforce essential skills, and complete academic tracking and documentation.
Key Responsibilities
Classroom & Lab Instruction - Deliver didactic, skills-lab, and simulation-based learning experiences.
Curriculum Delivery - Prepare and deliver lesson plans aligned with course syllabi, objectives, and outlines.
Program Collaboration - Work with the Program Director to implement, evaluate, and enhance the program of learning.
Student Advising - Maintain student records, provide academic counseling, and meet regularly with students to support progression.
Skills Lab Oversight - Manage skills lab inventory, equipment, and readiness for student practice.
Faculty Coordination - Mentor new faculty and coordinate instruction with ANIP and clinical instructors.
Clinical Alignment - Ensure learning objectives transition smoothly from classroom to clinical environments.
Accreditation & Compliance - Participate in faculty meetings, program evaluation activities, and accreditation processes.
NCLEX-PN Preparation - Coach students toward licensure readiness through structured remediation and exam-focused strategies.

Pima Medical Institute started changing lives in 1972 when Richard Luebke Sr. and his wife, JoAnn, brought to life their dream of providing quality medical career education. They opened the first campus in Tucson, Arizona, preparing students to become nursing assistants. Eventually Richard Luebke Jr. and Mark Luebke took the helm, introducing more programs and opening additional campus locations to meet the country’s growing demand for quality healthcare professionals.
In 2015, Fred Freedman became Pima Medical’s President and Chief Executive Officer after serving the college as Chief Operating Officer. He has been with Pima Medical since June of 2000. He’s leading Pima Medical into the future, with growth, innovation and a keen eye on what healthcare providers need in great employees.
