After passing your certification exam, the next step is to obtain your Nurse Practitioner (RN/NP) license. Next you should apply for prescriptive authority for the state in Massachusetts to practice. In some states, this requires a collaborating/supervising physician and in some states, there are restrictions for NP prescribing. Once obtaining a Massachusetts prescriptive license then you will need to apply for a federal drug enforcement administration (DEA) certificate, in order to prescribe narcotics.
