Licensure and practice rules in Maryland
AANP classifies Maryland as a full practice state. Maryland grants full practice authority to NPs. Applicants who have never been certified as NPs by any board of nursing must name a mentor on their application, a physician or NP licensed in Maryland with at least three years of clinical practice experience, who is available for consultation and collaboration for 18 months starting on the date the Maryland Board of Nursing receives the application.
Maryland is a Nurse Licensure Compact member. The compact covers the RN license beneath your APRN credential. The APRN license itself is still issued by Maryland.
