As of February 1, there were 2,827 NPs with autonomous practice licensure in Virginia. How quickly can we get to 3,000?
Although we are disappointed with the outcome of this year’s legislation, VCNP remains committed to working to advance future scope of practice legislation. As NPs, it’s important that we show the importance of autonomous practice licensure by applying when we’re eligible, even if licensure won’t benefit our current practice. Current requirements call for 5 or more years of clinical practice experience.
