Licensure and practice rules in Arizona
AANP classifies Arizona as a full practice state. Arizona grants full practice authority to NPs. After certification by the Board of Nursing, they can diagnose and treat patients, and prescribe once the Board grants prescribing and dispensing authority, all without physician supervision, a collaborative agreement or a transition period.
Arizona is a Nurse Licensure Compact member. The compact covers the RN license beneath your APRN credential. The APRN license itself is still issued by Arizona.
Applications, fees and renewal rules come from the Arizona State Board of Nursing.
