New York recorded 8 nurse deactivations in the NPI registry during the week of Aug. 10-16, representing 12% of the national total reported for the Nurses segment. All 8 were individuals; the registry listed 0 organizations among the state’s deactivations. The entries cover licensed practical nurses, registered nurses, a family nurse practitioner and a school registered nurse.
Credentials and Locations
Licensed Practical Nurse and Registered Nurse were the most frequently retired taxonomy categories, with 3 each. Family Nurse Practitioner and School Registered Nurse each accounted for 1 deactivation. The credential mix is therefore evenly divided between the two largest categories, while the remaining entries represent more specialized nursing roles.
New York City and Brooklyn had the highest listed city counts, with 2 each. Carthage, Yonkers and Laurelton each had 1. The city distribution spans the New York City area and communities elsewhere in the state, but the small number of records limits what can be inferred about geographic concentration. The data identifies individual NPI records rather than a complete measure of local nursing employment or service capacity.
Registry Context
These records reflect administrative deactivations in the federal NPPES registry. A deactivation does not by itself establish that a nurse’s license was affected or that the individual stopped practicing, so the weekly count should be read as a registry-status measure rather than a direct workforce-loss count.
