Alaska Overview
Working as an NP in Alaska
Alaska currently has 3 active nurse practitioner postings from 3 employers, with hiring concentrated in Eareckson Station and Wasilla. By posting volume, the most active categories right now are Psychiatric Mental Health, Full-Time, and Emergency. On the regulatory side, AANP places Alaska in its full practice category. AANP uses this category where state law lets NPs evaluate patients, diagnose, order and interpret diagnostic tests, and initiate and manage treatment, including prescribing medications and controlled substances, under the exclusive licensure authority of the state board of nursing. Some of these states first require a transition period. States in the same category still set different requirements, so check the Alaska rules themselves before applying. No median is published for Alaska postings yet, so compare compensation posting by posting. Alaska is not a Nurse Licensure Compact member, so out-of-state RNs apply for a Alaska RN license by endorsement.
