Authority Test Bank

Multiple Choice

1. An APRN works in a urology clinic under the supervision of a physician who
does not restrict the types of medications the APRN is allowed to
prescribe. State law does not require the APRN to practice under physician
supervision. How would the APRN’s prescriptive authority be described?

a. Full authority
b. Independent
c. Without limitation
d. Limited authority

ANS: B
The APRN has independent prescriptive authority because the regulating body
does not require that the APRN work under physician supervision. Full
prescriptive authority gives the provider the right to prescribe independently
and without limitation. Limited authority places restrictions on the types of
drugs that can be prescribed.DIF: Cognitive Level: ComprehensionREF: p. 1TOP:

authority?

individuals with health care coverage, and thus the number who have access to

for more providers with prescriptive authority. APRNs can fill this practice
gap.DIF: Cognitive Level: ComprehensionREF: p. 2TOP: Nursing Process:
