What a nurse practitioner does
Nurse practitioners are advanced practice registered nurses with graduate-level clinical training. In Wyoming, nurse practitioners are licensed to examine patients, order and interpret tests, diagnose conditions and prescribe medication. For most everyday primary care needs, a visit with a nurse practitioner covers the same ground as a visit with a physician.
