ICAN ACT!
Posted 29 days ago in AANP UPDATES!
The Improving Care and Access to Nurses (ICAN) Act has been reintroduced, and it’s time for us to rally behind it! This bill is a game-changer for patients and providers alike, removing outdated barriers that prevent APRNs from practicing to the full extent of their education and training.
Please consider adding your organization to the sign-on support letter.
Why Should Organizations and Nurses Support the ICAN Act?
- Expands access to care for millions by reducing unnecessary red tape
- Empowers APRNs to provide timely, high-quality care, especially in underserved areas
- Strengthens healthcare teams by recognizing APRNs as vital providers
- Helps alleviate workforce shortages and improves patient outcomes
This bill is about putting patients first and ensuring they get the care they need—when and where they need it. Let’s raise our voices and advocate for full practice authority across all settings.
Take Action! Contact your legislators and urge them to support the ICAN Act.
Our patients—and our profession—depend on it!
