California recorded six Nurses NPI deactivations during this week, representing 9% of the national total. All six records were for individual providers; no organizations were included. In the NPPES registry, deactivation is an administrative status change and does not by itself establish that a provider has stopped practicing or faced a licensing action.
Credential and City Patterns
The leading retired credential was Psychiatric/Mental Health Registered Nurse, with two deactivations, or 33% of the California total. Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner, Registered Nurse, Family Nurse Practitioner and Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist each accounted for one record, or 17%. This mix does not show a single dominant nursing role; instead, the records span behavioral health, women’s health, primary care and anesthesia.
The top cities were McClellan, San Diego, Vista, Culver City and Sacramento, with one deactivation apiece. Eureka also appears among the individual records, but is not included in the listed top five. The city pattern is dispersed rather than concentrated in one location, although this small weekly count limits what can be inferred about broader workforce distribution.
Registry Context
CMS removes names, addresses and taxonomies from deactivated records, while Hipa.ai retains a pre-deactivation name cache from public files. These NPI deactivations describe registry changes for the week and should be read as administrative workforce data, not as a provider-by-provider assessment of current practice status.
