YIOL YIOL YIOL




1. An APRN works in a urology clinic under the supervision
YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL


of a physician who does not restrict the types of medication
YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL


s the APRN is allowed to prescribe. State law does not req
YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL


uire the APRN to practice under physician supervision. How
YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL


would the APRN’s prescriptive authority be described?
YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL


a. Full authority YIOL


b. Independent
c. Without limitation YIOL


d. Limited authority YIOL


ANS: B YIOL


Rationale: The APRN has independent prescriptive authority bec
YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL


ause the regulating body does not require that the APRN wor
YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL


k under physician supervision. Full prescriptive authority gives
YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL


the provider the right to prescribe independently and without l
YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL


imitation. Limited authority places restrictions on the types of
YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL


drugs that can be prescribed.

YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL YIOL


APRNs can fill this practice gap.
