Licensure and practice rules in Colorado
AANP classifies Colorado as a full practice state. Colorado NPs can practice independently and prescribe medications, including controlled substances. NPs new to prescribing first receive provisional prescriptive authority and must complete a 750 hour prescribing mentorship with a physician or an advanced practice registered nurse who has full prescriptive authority within three years to earn full prescriptive authority.
Colorado is a Nurse Licensure Compact member. The compact covers the RN license beneath your APRN credential. The APRN license itself is still issued by Colorado.
Applications, fees and renewal rules come from the Colorado Board of Nursing.
