Current Topic
This is a dynamic time for advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs), fraught with both opportunities and challenges. In the recent Institute of Medicine publication The Future of Nursing, four key messages were emphasized. First, "nurses should practice to the full extent of their education and training." This message is especially important to APRNs, who have advanced education and scope of practice but significant restrictions on their practice in many states. This IOM report recommended that scope-of-practice barriers be removed.
