Alabama Nursing Board Defense Lawyer – Call Today – Study: States with independent practicing APRNs have better healthcare – (866) 348-2889
Quality of healthcare is improved in states where APRNs are allowed to practice independently, according to a recently published study by Missouri University Sinclair School of Nursing researchers.
“APRNs have graduate-level educations; when you get APRNs into nursing homes, they help improve the overall quality of care because they have advanced knowledge of the best evidence-based practice,” Marilyn Rantz, PhD, RN, FAAN, one of the researchers who serves as the Helen E. Nahm Chair in the MU Sinclair SON, said in a Jan. 14 news release.
