Illinois requires employers to publish a pay range with every posting. These are the ranges Illinois hospitals put on their own licensed practical nurse postings, not survey estimates.
As of September 2026, 45 LPN / LVN postings from 4 Illinois hospitals list an hourly range; the median posted midpoint is $28.97 per hour, the middle half of postings sits between $28.76 and $30.44, and the widest posted range runs $20.59 to $43.80. Figures come from employers' own job postings and refresh nightly.
