Healthcare Jobs in North Carolina

It ends when the agreement does. North Carolina ties approval to practice to a named primary supervising physician, so a nurse practitioner who leaves that collaborative practice agreement loses the approval to practice that rested on it. A new post takes a new agreement and a fresh approval from both boards before the medical acts resume, so it belongs in the questions you ask about any North Carolina nurse practitioner job.

The registry is the health department's, and the Board of Nursing approves the medication aide training course. An aide who goes on to pass medications therefore holds a listing from one agency and a course approved by another, which is why a question about eligibility can get two different answers depending on who you ask.

It doesn't, and the state says so in as many words: listing on the North Carolina Medication Aide Registry for Nursing Homes does not qualify an individual to administer medications in an Adult Care facility. The registry that lists you says as much in its own name: it is the registry for nursing homes.
