PMHNP
Jobsin Kentucky.

There are currently 8 psychiatric nurse practitioner positions available in Kentucky, and the 6 of them that disclose a salary range advertise a median of $169K per year. New positions are added daily.

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).

Across the 6 current Kentucky postings that disclose a salary range, the median advertised PMHNP salary is $169K per year. That is an advertised figure from job postings, not self-reported earnings, and it moves as postings turn over. Pay varies by experience, setting, and whether the role is W-2 or 1099.

PMHNP positions in Kentucky are distributed across multiple cities and include remote telehealth options.

Yes, many telehealth and remote PMHNP positions allow you to practice from Kentucky. You'll need an active NP license in the state where your patient resides.
