Requirements for Remote Nurse Practitioners in Maryland

As you plan to get started in a career as a nurse practitioner, you must meet the following requirements:

  • Education: Your education must include the prerequisites that qualified you for a registered nurse degree in Maryland or a “compact” nurse license, which grants multi-state practice privileges. Then, you must complete a master’s degree program approved by the Maryland Board of Nursing.

  • Experience: You need to select a mentor who is a certified registered nurse practitioner or physician. The mentor must be licensed to practice in Maryland, and you must study with the mentor for at least 18 months.

  • Certification: When you complete your graduate degree and work experience with a mentor, you must seek certification by a national board such as the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners Certification Board. This is also the time you must prove your competency with the English language.

  • Fee: Maryland charges a $50 application fee.

Your fieldwork, degrees, fees, and examinations may vary depending on the selected specialization. These include (but are not limited to) family nurse practitioner (FNP), psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP), and primary care nurse practitioner.

How to Become a Remote Nurse Practitioner in Maryland

If you want to become a remote nurse practitioner (also referred to as a telemedicine nurse practitioner) or work-at-home nurse practitioner, there are plenty of full-time and part-time remote work opportunities available in Maryland. In particular, you can find these roles in Baltimore, Bethesda, and Annapolis, and their surrounding suburban communities.

As you apply for a remote nurse practitioner job, keep the following information in mind:

  • Work-from-home nurse practitioner or remote nurse practitioner: Remote work is a great way for you to work for a healthcare facility or practice that isn’t near your home. It provides you with the opportunity to choose a role that best suits your expertise. Just be aware that some roles may require some on-site patient care or work, so look out for that requirement in the job description.

  • Additional training: The standard of patient care in telehealth is the same as in-person care, but there is no state-mandated training specific to virtual care. However, telemedicine companies often provide training to educate clinicians on how to use relevant technology and platforms, as well as best practices for good bedside manner.

  • Necessary documentation: Be sure to keep your credentials, references, transcripts, and other important professional paperwork handy. This will save you time when you apply for a job or receive verification requests.

As you start looking for virtual care opportunities, consider job posting sites such as Indeed, ZipRecruiter, LinkedIn, and Glassdoor. Telehealth companies often post open positions on these platforms. Wheel matches clinicians with virtual care opportunities and has a variety of positions available for NPs in Maryland.
