The Advanced Practice Registered Nurse Modernization Act is on the move again at the State Capitol.  Sen. Patrick Testin, Chair of the Senate Agriculture and Revenue Committee says this legislation could relax some of the human resource issues being faced in Wisconsin, especially rural communities.

Under APRN, qualified registered nurses would be able to practice independently and without the need for a collaborative agreement with a physician – so long as the cases do not fall outside their areas of expertise.

Testin says the bills language has been circulating in Madison for over a decade.  He hopes this time, with bipartisan support, it will cross the finish line and be signed by Governor Tony Evers.
