Licensure and practice rules in Florida
AANP classifies Florida as a restricted practice state. Florida requires NPs to practice under a supervisory protocol with a physician. Since 2020, NPs who meet eligibility requirements may register for autonomous practice limited to primary care, including family medicine, general pediatrics, and general internal medicine; the requirements include, within the preceding five years, at least 3,000 supervised hours of clinical practice and graduate-level coursework, or the equivalent, in differential diagnosis and pharmacology.
Florida is a Nurse Licensure Compact member. The compact covers the RN license beneath your APRN credential. The APRN license itself is still issued by Florida.
