CNM scope of practice - Fl

At the facility I am currently working at as a L&D RN, talks are underway to allow our CNM's to "manage" pts 32 weeks and up. I have not found anything specific about this issue on the state board of nursing site. Any thoughts or references out there?
Thanks

Re: CNM scope of practice - Fl

Try looking at hospital bylaws.
My hospital allows CNM's to manage and deliver pts 36 weeks and over independently (well as independently as someone can who has a backup MD)
Less than that we consult and most often comanage in the care along with the MD and perinatal people.
