Nurse Licensure Compact: which states accept a multistate licence

Which of the states where we are hiring accept a multistate RN licence, and what to do if your target state is not in the compact.

Updated Nov 3, 2026

The Nurse Licensure Compact lets registered nurses and LPN/LVNs with a multistate licence practise in other member states without getting a new licence. Most of the states where Lela Boom is currently hiring are compact members, which can shorten the time between an offer and your first shift.

The table below shows the states where we have open roles today and whether each one is a compact state. It updates automatically as roles open and close.

If your target state is not a compact state

You will need to apply for licensure by endorsement with that state's board of nursing. See our guide to licensure when you move states.

Compact membership and implementation dates change. Confirm the current list at nursecompact.com before making plans.
