Similar entities may also exist for different regions. The mission of BONs is the protection of the public through the regulation of nursing practice. BONs put into practice state/region regulations for nurses that, among other things, lay out the requirements for licensure and define the scope of nursing practice in that state/region. It can be a valuable exercise to compare regulations among various state/regional boards of nursing. Doing so can help share insights that could be useful should there be future changes in a state/region. In addition, nurses may find the need to be licensed in multiple states or regions. • • • To Prepare: Review the Resources and reflect on the mission of state/regional boards of nursing as the protection of the public through the regulation of nursing practice. Consider how key regulations may impact nursing practice. Review key regulations for nursing practice of your state’s/region’s board of nursing and those of at least one other state/region and select at least two APRN regulations to focus on for this Discussion By Day XXX Respond to at least two of your colleagues* on two different days and explain how the regulatory environment and the regulations selected by your colleague differ from your state/region. Be specific and provide examples. STUDENT #1 S.L Mississippi has set additional requirements for advanced practice nurses who prescribe controlled substances. The APRN must be able to document education and training in pharmacology. An APRN can meet the education requirement through pharmacology coursework that was integrated into the advance practice program (Mississippi State Board of Nursing,2020). The Missouri state which I reside in Board can instead accept a recent three semester hour advance pharmacology course Offred by an accredited school or 45 hours of recent continuing education. The students must have 300 hours of preceptorship. Preceptors is to include training with medications, drugs, and therapies devices. Eventually, the advanced practitioner will enter into a collaborative agreement with a physician who has an unrestricted DEA number and who is engaged in similar practice. An advanced practice nurse cannot apply for prescriptive authority until he or she has 1000 hours of experienced (Missouri Secretary of State: Code of State Regulation, 2020, p. 7). State practice and licensure law reduces the ability of nurse practitioners to engage in at least one element of NP practice. The Association of Nurse Practitioners (2019) State requires a regulated collaborative agreement with an outside health discipline in order for the NP to provide patient care in Mississippi. Nurse practitioner practice is further limited in Missouri as state law requires that any patient evaluated and treated by an NP that does not have a self-limited or well-defined condition be reevaluated by a physician within two weeks.

Florida is one of those states that are very restrictive in NPs practices under state guidelines and laws. Per laws and mandates that govern the practice of NPs, Florida requires that nurse practitioners are supervised by physicians; while the supervising physician does not need to be available in person, he/she must be available by phone for consultation (Nurse Practitioner Scope of Practice: Florida, 2013). With an increase in the disproportion of retiring physicians to the percentage of medical students, it is unfortunate that Florida is now realizing that we need more NPs to fill the gap in providing primary care. While state laws managing NPs in Florida may be among the toughest in the country, according to recent policy changes dating back to July 2020, advanced NPs who have accumulated at least 3,000 hours of experience under physician supervision will have the right to independently operate primary care practices in Florida without an attending doctor (The pulse of nursing, 2020). At the same time, the passage of this bill is like having a foot in the door, it gives a level of the liberation of practice to some practitioners and excludes similar discipline like a CRNAs. Additionally, another APRN board of nursing regulation in the state of Florida is NPs practicing in Florida may sign for handicap parking permits, but they may not sign death certificates (Nurse Practitioner Scope of Practice: Florida, 2013). Experienced APRNs should be able to sign death certificated as they are highly trained and skilled professionals. Although our neighboring state of Georgia has similar restrictions on NPs practice, interestingly, unlike Florida, an NP may prescribe Schedules III-V controlled substances if the NP is authorized to prescribe and has submitted the written protocol with the supervising physician (Scope of practice policy, n.d.) Advanced Practice Registered Nurses (APRNs) who have the legal authority to practice within the full scope of their education and experience will be able to work alongside an MD whenever possible to provide care to patients in areas that otherwise lacked health access. Full practice authority does not make the MDs less available to patients but rather allows more territory access of health coverage by NPs. APRNs may adhere to the two regulations by understanding the laws that govern the practice and using them as guidelines, so they are compliant in their practice. Although the regulations governing APRNs’ practices differ from state to state, ultimately the laws and policies are adapted for the safety and immediate medical needs of the patients through a developed interdisciplinary relationship amongst NPs and MDs.
