Does my Med Surg background meet the experience requirements for this job?

How do I get licensed for an Alaska travel assignment?
Alaska is not a Nurse Licensure Compact state, so you’ll need an active Alaska RN license—or an Alaska temporary permit—before practice begins; an out-of-state multistate license doesn’t apply. Apply by endorsement, and start the fingerprint step early: Alaska requires an original FD-258 fingerprint card by mail, and a rejected card may require resubmission. Our Alaska Nursing License Guide has current fees, timelines, and step-by-step instructions.
