Nurse practitioners may prescribe some drugs in Illinois _http://abclocal.go.com/wls/story?section=health&id=5692816_ (http://a bclocal.go.com/wls/story?section=health&id=5692816) October 5, 2007 - It could now be easier for Illinois patients to get medications for pain and chronic diseases Governor Rod Blagojevich just signed the Nurse Practitioners Act, and the goal is to improve health care for patients. That means drugs such as Ritalin and other narcotics may now be prescribed by a nurse practitioner and not just a doctor. Proponents of this act believe allowing advance-practice nurses to prescribe these medications will help many patients better cope with chronic diseases and make these medications more readily available to those who need them Gail ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
