The Nursing Care Quality Assurance Commission determines it is beyond the scope of the licensed practical to perform IUI. It is in the scope of an appropriately prepared and competent licensed practical nurse to assist an authorized health care practitioner or the registered nurse, in providing IUI or other ART procedures, following clinical practice standards. The licensed practical nurse may perform some activities related to ART within the nurse's scope of practice, such as medication administration, routine laboratory testing, and basic education, under the direction of an authorized health care practitioner, or under the direction and supervision, of the registered nurse. The licensed practical nurse should use the Scope of Practice Decision Tree to determine if these activities are within the nurse's legal and individual scope of practice.
