Practicing as an NP in Ohio
AANP classifies Ohio as a reduced practice state. Ohio NPs must have a standard care arrangement with a collaborating physician. Ohio is a Nurse Licensure Compact member. The compact covers the RN license beneath your APRN credential. The APRN license itself is still issued by Ohio. APRN licensure is issued by the Ohio 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.
Role Focus
Psychiatric Mental Health NP (PMHNP) roles center on a defined patient population or setting. Each listing states the certification it expects.
