nursing licensing for travel

[justme]

Hi, just wondering if you need to be licensened in every state you work in when you travel....if so...how do you go about this?

If you live and are licensed in one of the following states you can work in any of them

Arkansas
Arizona
Delware
Idaho
Iowa
Maine
Maryland
Mississippi
Nebraska
North Carolina
North Dakota
South Dakota
Texas
Tennessee
Utah
Wisconsin

Indiana will "go compact" on 1 April and Virginia on 1 Jan of 2005

If you live and are licensed in one of the other states you have to get a license to work in that state.

Just click on the map and you will find the things you have to do get a license in that state.

Thanks for your reply Becca......can you be licensed in multi-states without losing your home state licensure?

One more question.....when you travel....do you keep your address and have mail forwarded or do you change your address and drivers license to wherever you may be working? Sorry to sound so "dumb" about this but its just a new thought for jobs in the working here.....

whoops.....how about Michigan licensure? Is it good anywhere else?

Sweetie,,,My name is not Becca.OK????? WindingRoad is just perfect...


You can have 34 licenses if you want.. As long as you can do the CEU's and wanna pay for them... See a compact license is really 17 licenses soon to be 18 .. Indiana comes into the compact on 1 April.. And then the other 33... Personally, I have no need for some of them.. E-mail me privately I'll tell you which one's ...LOL.. Don't wanna tick anyone off here...

As long as you are a good little do bee and pay your fees to your home state they will be more than happy to send you your license..LOLL This just cracked me up..

Don't take offense you made me laugh...

NOOOOOOOOOOO don't change your address or your car registration.. You want a "tax home" so you can deduct expenses for traveling... E-mail me privately here.. I have oddles of free minutes on my NEW cell phone number..LOLLL
And so many thought I was just another pretty face....LMAO..

And nope sorry to say Michigan is in a league of it's own.. Unless they have some obscure rule about an adjacent state.Some do but are not in the compact...Is that clear as mud.....
