1. REGULATION FOR NURSING PRACTICE STAFF DEVELOPMENT MEETING

2. Introduction In order for a comprehensive care to be provided, this is dependant on the nursing profession. So that the nursed profession can be regulated appropriately, both professional nursing organizations and Boards of Nursing (BON) are all essential. Organization that involve professional nurses major themselves on support, nurse growth and advocacy (Giddens et al., 2022). The main goals for nursing board is to oversee regulations, competency for nursing practice and also license. This talk will basically cover these organizations, how the affect the nursing practice and also their roles.

3. Professional Nursing Associations vs. Boards of Nursing ( BoNs ) Boards of Nursing (BON) is an example of a state-established organization. Their main responsibility is to determine the requirements for nursing licensure . BONs manages to guarantee patients’ safety by keeping an eye on the continuous competency for nurses who are certified (Giddens et al., 2022). BONs has the responsibility for upholding laws that govern the nursing profession. BONs ensure that all the standards of practice set in each state are adhered to by each nurse Professional nurse associations base themselves on fostering certain passion within the field of nursing. Within the state. Municipal and federal levels, they encourage nursing profession. These organizations ensure ongoing career and continuous profession development. Ensure personal growth as well as networking possibilities. To their members, they are setters for moral standards and guidelines Professional nurse associations get involved in policy-making which ensures an improvement in the profession of nursing. (Walton et al., 2020)

4. Membership to the Nursing Boards Each state has its own way of becoming a BONs member. Sates differ depending of the number of BONs it has. The Florida Board of Nursing is made up of thirteen members. The membership is made up of three non-nursing professionals, three nurse practitioners as well as seven nurses who are registered. Membership diversity guarantees various point of view on regulation and nursing practice (Cassiani et al., 2020).

5. Criteria for BoN Members Selection in Florida The governor is the one who is in charge of appointing Members of the Florida BON The senate is always requested to approve the list of appointees. The senate therefore, deliberates, examines and casts a vote on the list of nominees. The members the officially become members of the BON after being approved by the senate. The process of selection guarantees the diverse experts to manage nursing regulation.

6. State Regulation Affecting Nursing Practice Regulation: The house Bill 607 (2020) has expanded the Registered Nurses' (RNs') scope of practice in Florida (Phillips, 2021) . RNs are now good to conduct other responsibilities such as giving medications without being supervised by any nurse. This rule has it’s main goal as improving the effectiveness of nursing care. Influence on Nurse's Role This regulation has enabled registered nurses to work with much independence. Registered nurses have the liberty for making a decision on patient care independently and this speeds up time for responses. Nurses are allowed to practice in many new areas and this helps in the growth of their profession.

7. Influence on Healthcare Delivery, Cost, and Access Nurses are guaranteed greater autonomy in their profession and this helps in improving the quality of care provided. Leads to decreased healthcare expenses since the need for doctors to perform regular procedures is lowered. It increases the chances for unprivileged rural areas especially those who have inadequate doctors to access medical care.

8. Impact on Care/Education for Culturally Diverse Patients Following the current scope f practice, nurses must make some modifications in their care practice so as to consider cultural variations. As RNs make assumptions for hands-on patient care responsibilities, the cultural competency training becomes more important. Through facilitation of RN’s ability to attend to various patients’ requirements, a culturally sensitive care is fostered.

9. State Regulation for APRNs Regulation: APRNs are permitted by t he 2020 Florida Senate Bill 972 to work on their own. APRNs are capable of diagnosing, treating and prescribing medications for any health condition without any doctor’s supervision (Anders, 2021). The main aim of this rule is to ensure improved health outcomes and increased access to healthcare facilities. Influence on APRNs' Role Whenever APRNs are working on their own, they are capable of assuming greater responsibility and autonomy. The capacity for APRNs to offer thorough primary care services is increased. Offers more chances for APRNs to specialize and be thorough with their area of expertise.

10. Influence on Healthcare Delivery, Cost, and Access for APRNs Through the independent provision of primary healthcare services by APRNs, regulation enhances delivery of healthcare. Healthcare expenses are lowered since the for doctors to provide primary care is lowered. In rural areas that have limited healthcare access, it improves the access.

11. Recent Changes in Regulations and Their Impact Within the last five years, the nursing laws have changed significantly. These regulations have enabled both APRNs and RNs to have increased range for practice options. These modifications seek to enhance quality care, increase access to healthcare facilities as well as lower hospital expenses (Smith, 2021). The ongoing legislative activities lead to t he field of nursing practice to change constantly.
