Can a registered nurse inject Botox or filler in Vermont?
Who treats · part of The Practice Perimeter
Short answer
The cited rules do not settle this — they define APRNs and require a collaborating-provider agreement for those under 24 months/2,400 hours, and bar delegating care to anyone not qualified by training or license, but say nothing on RN injection authority.
Vermont runs a transition-to-practice scheme rather than immediate independence. An APRN is licensed to perform acts of medical diagnosis and to prescribe medical, therapeutic or corrective measures; but an APRN with fewer than 24 months and 2,400 hours of licensed active advanced nursing practice must hold a formal collaborative provider agreement and MAY NOT engage in solo practice until those requirements are met.
