Pennsylvania recorded 5 nurse deactivations in the federal NPI registry during 2026-W39, the week spanning September 21 through September 27. The state’s entries represented 7% of the national total. All five records were for individual providers; no organizations were included. A registry deactivation is an administrative status change and does not, by itself, establish that a nurse has stopped practicing or that a license action occurred.
Credentials and locations
Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists and Family Nurse Practitioners each accounted for 2 records. The remaining record was for a Licensed Practical Nurse. The city breakdown was evenly distributed: Erie, Altoona, Hazleton, Schuylkill Haven and Harrisburg each had one deactivation. No city or credential dominated the week’s Pennsylvania entries; the counts show a small, geographically dispersed set of records rather than a concentrated cluster. These registry categories describe the listed taxonomy and location, not current employment or service availability.
Registry context
The weekly figures summarize deactivation records in the NPPES registry for the specified state and category. Because deactivation is an administrative change, the entries should not be read as a count of nurses leaving Pennsylvania’s workforce. The data offer a snapshot of registry activity, without establishing whether the providers continue to practice under other circumstances or how local care capacity may have changed.
