2-What are the current rules and regulations governing your ability to practice in your state?
3- Given that the original IOM report called for nurses to practice to the full extent of their
education, what does this mean for you now versus in the future as an advanced practice nurse?
4- Given the IOM call, what do you feel you should be allowed to do as an advanced practice
nurse which your state does not allow at this time (I feel like independent practice without supervision should be allowed)?
