Major areas for rotations in Nevada
- Las Vegas valley: Las Vegas, Henderson and North Las Vegas, home to most Nevadans and most of the state’s hospitals.
- Reno–Sparks: Northern Nevada’s medical hub and university medical school.
- Carson City and the Lake Tahoe area: the capital region.
- Rural Nevada: Elko and frontier communities across the Great Basin.
Nevada has one of the lowest numbers of providers per resident in the country, and growing clinics in Las Vegas and Reno often welcome students.
Nevada NP practice environment
Nevada is classified as a full practice state by AANP. Nurse practitioners licensed by the Nevada State Board of Nursing can evaluate patients, diagnose, order and interpret tests, and prescribe without a required physician collaboration or supervision agreement. Nevada NPs practice independently, and those prescribing Schedule II drugs complete a period of practice experience first.
Practice laws change often. Confirm current rules with the Nevada State Board of Nursing and AANP’s State Practice Environment map.
