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.
