Maine Overview
Working as an NP in Maine
Maine currently has 5 active nurse practitioner postings from 3 employers, with hiring concentrated in Augusta, Portland, and Scarborough. By posting volume, the most active categories right now are Psychiatric Mental Health, Full-Time, and Part-Time. On the regulatory side, AANP places Maine 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 Maine rules themselves before applying. No median is published for Maine postings yet, so compare compensation posting by posting. Maine's Nurse Licensure Compact membership covers the RN license beneath the APRN credential. The APRN license itself is still issued by Maine.
Posted pay in Maine
5 postings in Maine state a salary from 3 employers. A state median appears once at least 5 postings from at least 3 employers list annual pay for an NP role, with no single employer above 40% of them. The national median for nurse practitioners is $132,300 (BLS OEWS, Nurse Practitioners (29-1171), median annual wage, May 2025).
Work mode and schedule
1 of 5 open roles is remote, 1 is hybrid and 3 are on site.
Where employers list a schedule, Full-Time leads with 4, then Part-Time (1).
