Abstract
Both educators and regulators have an interest in determining if advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs) are prepared to obtain prescriptive authority. A study was conducted to confirm competencies that could be adopted to prepare APRNs for prescribing. Prescribing competencies can serve as the foundation for evidence-based legislation, and regulation by state boards, which could allow APRNs to reach their full potential.
