Practicing as an NP in Delaware
AANP classifies Delaware as a full practice state. Delaware grants full practice and prescriptive authority to NPs when the Board of Nursing issues their advanced practice registered nurse license, and state law requires no collaborative agreement or supervised experience period after licensure. Delaware is a Nurse Licensure Compact member. The compact covers the RN license beneath your APRN credential. The APRN license itself is still issued by Delaware. APRN licensure is issued by the Delaware Board of Nursing. Check the board's current checklist before accepting a role, because requirements and fees change. Certification for this role: national board certification through AANPCB or ANCC on the population track that matches the role.
Rate-Based Pay
Contract rates are quoted per hour or per shift without the benefits of a permanent role, so compare the whole package.

1099 contractors can deduct travel, housing, CME, malpractice insurance, and home office expenses where the rules allow.
