[NP-Clinical] CAN PA'S SUPERVISE NURSES?

[Christine Smith]

I need specific legalese that states in California a PA can supervise an LVN (LPNs in most states). I can find legitimate info stating a PA can supervise an MA on both the California BRN site and the California PA site but nothing specific saying they can supervise an LVN.

We may make an LVN position in the hospital based clinic I run - free standing, no MD on site. I know that RNs (therefore NPs) can supervise LVNs but I cannot find the documentation allowing PAs to do this.

Thanks,
