Nurse practitioner (NP, APRN)

An advanced practice registered nurse. What an NP may do, and with whom, is set by the state.

What it is

APRN stands for advanced practice registered nurse. Nurse practitioners are one of its roles.

Nursys QuickConfirm lists certified nurse practitioner (CNP) among the license types it can return, alongside clinical nurse specialist, certified nurse midwife and certified registered nurse anesthetist.

What it doesn’t guarantee

  • Whether this treatment needs a collaborating or supervising physician in this state
  • Training in aesthetic treatments specifically
  • That the advanced practice license, and not only the RN license, is active

How to check it

  1. Search Nursys QuickConfirm, if the state’s board takes part.
  2. Or search the state board of nursing directly. Your state page lists the boards we have on file.
  3. Check that the advanced practice license is shown and active, not only an RN license.
  • Nursys QuickConfirm

    National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN)

    Nurse license and discipline status, from the boards of nursing that take part.

    Not every board takes part. If a nurse doesn’t appear, search the state board of nursing before drawing any conclusion.

    Verified Sep 14, 2026. Opened nursys.com and its QuickConfirm page; both are run by NCSBN.
