Oregon NP practice environment

Oregon is classified as a full practice state by AANP. Nurse practitioners licensed by the Oregon State Board of Nursing can evaluate patients, diagnose, order and interpret tests, and prescribe without a required physician collaboration or supervision agreement. Oregon was among the first states to grant NPs independent practice, and NPs commonly run their own clinics.

Practice laws change often. Confirm current rules with the Oregon State Board of Nursing and AANP’s State Practice Environment map.
