In addition to Connecticut, those states granting full independence to NPs are Alaska, Arizona, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Iowa, Maine, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, Washington, and Wyoming, according to the American Association of Nurse Practitioners (AANP).
