I Have A Wisconsin Lpn Nursing License I Moved To North Carolina Can I Still Use My Wisconsin Nursing License?

Yes, Wisconsin is a compact state and so is North Carolina. Compact states recognizes nursing licenses from other states, and you don’t have to apply for a license in a compact state. Provided your license does not have any restrictions or disciplinary actions, it is valid in NC.

    Wisconsin Nurses are able to work in some states without additional license. If these states would fall under Com-stock State guidelines as Wisconsin does. Not all states have this.
