Can a registered nurse inject Botox or filler in North Dakota?
Who treats · part of The Practice Perimeter
The Nurse Practices Act defines an advanced practice registered nurse as one licensed in the state within one of four roles — certified nurse practitioner, certified registered nurse anesthetist, certified nurse midwife or certified clinical nurse specialist — and functioning in a population focus the board approves. On delegation, § 43-12.1-16 provides that a licensed nurse MAY delegate MEDICATION ADMINISTRATION to a person the chapter exempts under two named subsections. These claims establish the APRN definition and the delegation limit; they do not establish whether an APRN may practice without physician collaboration.
