Practicing in Maine
Maine practice environment
AANP classifies Maine as a full practice state. Maine NPs may prescribe from licensure, including controlled substances in schedules II through V, but must practice for at least 24 months under the supervision of a licensed physician or a supervising NP, or be employed by a clinic or hospital whose medical director is a licensed physician, before practicing independently. A 2026 law replaces this requirement once the Board of Nursing adopts new practice standards by rule, so confirm the current requirement with the Board. Maine is a member of the Nurse Licensure Compact (verified against the NCSBN roster on August 11, 2026). Licensure applications run through the Maine State Board of Nursing.
