Restricted Practice

Practicing in California

AANP classifies California as a restricted practice state. California NPs generally practice under standardized procedures developed collaboratively with physicians and furnish drugs and devices under physician supervision. NPs who complete a transition to practice in California of three full-time equivalent years or 4,600 hours can be certified to practice without standardized procedures in a group setting with a physician, and usually after at least three more years in good standing, in an independent setting. California is not a Nurse Licensure Compact member, so out-of-state RNs apply for a California RN license by endorsement. APRN licensure is issued by the California Board of Registered Nursing. Check the board's current checklist before accepting a role, because requirements and fees change.
