The Nurse Practitioner/Physician Assistant provides primary care consistent with the advanced practice registered nurse’s specialized knowledge, judgment, skill, training, and education, without medical supervision or delegation as authorized by the Missouri Nurse Practice Act. The APRN must enter into and maintain a collaborative practice agreement with a physician licensed to practice medicine in Missouri. Under that agreement, the physician delegates authority to deliver healthcare services and treatments and to administer, dispense, and prescribe drugs for clinical conditions the APRN is authorized to treat. The APRN may diagnose and initiate treatment for people with acute or chronic illness or injury.
