The term full practice authority is about allowing advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs) the ability to use their knowledge, skills, abilities, and judgement to work to the full extent of their education and training (ANA, 2022). Full practice authority allows APRNs to provide critical services to patients in areas where there are shortages of primary care and specialty care providers and gives patients more options in the care they seek. Removing practice barriers helps increase patient’s timely access to care especially in underserved areas.
APRNs are made up of four specific roles: certified nurse midwives, certified registered nurse anesthetists, clinical nurse specialists, and nurse practitioners (NCSBN, 2022). There are several organizations who have supported and advocated for removing any barriers for this to occur. These organizations include the National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine, the National Governors Association, the Federal Trade Commission, the Bipartisan Policy Center, American Nurses Association, National Council of State Boards of Nursing, the Brookings Institution, and others.
