State Insights
Kentucky at a Glance
Full-time PMHNP positions in Kentucky typically bundle employer-sponsored health insurance, 401(k) match, CME allowance, malpractice coverage, and 3 to 4 weeks of PTO into the base. The employers hiring on that basis here include FCS - Psychiatric Recruitment and Quorum Health Corporate. Total-comp comparisons against contract or per-diem rates should net out the benefits self-funded clinicians have to cover themselves. Kentucky grants reduced practice authority requiring a collaborative agreement with a physician. The 5 active postings reflect a smaller pool of openings for PMHNPs in Kentucky.
Kentucky PMHNPs prescribe under two collaborative agreements with a physician: a CAPA-NS for non-scheduled drugs, which ends after four years of prescribing, and a CAPA-CS for controlled substances, which the Board of Nursing can lift after four years of controlled substance prescribing (KRS 314.042).
