The APRN has independent prescriptive authority because the regulating body does not
33 33 33 33 33 33 33 33 33 33 33
33 require that the APRN work under physician supervision. Full prescriptive authority gives the
3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 33
provider the right to prescribe independently and without limitation. Limited authority places
