Washington Overview
Working as an NP in Washington
Washington currently has 36 active nurse practitioner postings from 11 employers, with hiring concentrated in Seattle, Kirkland, and Totem Lake. By posting volume, the most active categories right now are Full-Time, Family Practice, and Psychiatric Mental Health. On the regulatory side, AANP places Washington 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 Washington rules themselves before applying. No median is published for Washington postings yet, so compare compensation posting by posting. Washington's Nurse Licensure Compact membership covers the RN license beneath the APRN credential. The APRN license itself is still issued by Washington.
Posted pay in Washington
30 postings in Washington state a salary from 10 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
10 of 36 open roles are remote, 7 are hybrid and 19 are on site.
Where employers list a schedule, Full-Time leads with 31, then Per Diem (3) and Part-Time (2).
Remote roles still name the states they require licensure in, so check each posting before applying.
