Does anyone have a link to a site that provides a good summary of nurse practice acts by state?

Trying to read mine is giving me a headache.

I am trying to do an assignment.....

Thx

Since you posted this on the NP board, I am assuming that you mean nurse practice acts as they relate to NPs? If that's the question it can be found here:

Thank you, that was very helpful. I am looking at practice acts in relation to NP, CNS, CNM, CRNA.

Thanks!

For CRNA look here:

For CNM I don't think there is an organized listing of state laws. You can look here, but I didn't see anything:

And for CNS - you will find in many states the CNS is lumped under the NP if the CNS is considered an APN. That is how it is in IL at least.
