Moving Florida ARNP

Published

Hi Everyone,

My family and I will be moving to Florida in the next couple of months since my husband was admitted into CRNA school. I am currently practicing as APNP in wisconsin and am having a hard time with the Florida license. Its seems intense. Where do you get fingerprinting done if you dont want to pay $300 dollars and are not in florida? What is average pay for APNP in Florida? Any advice?

On the contrary, I believe FL is the best place for APN to work. The original intent of APN was to be physicians extender. APN training is inadequate; therefore, close supervision is needed as way to prevent them from harming patients... That supposedly 'supervision' is still very lax in FL.

Perhaps you are not an NP or you have never worked in Florida as an NP. Or, perhaps you are just trolling the forum. That is the only way your statement would make any sense.

Not a NP, but I have been a RN (BSN) for 5+ years... I was contemplating NP school, which I should start in a couple of weeks if I decide to go ahead. However, seeing how bad NP education is, I am going to do pharmacy instead since I also have a couple of acceptances to pharm school... so I have to wait for another 8 months to start pharm school.

Lol. Dude, you're W19 from SDN, where you claim to be a medical student (and amusingly, I've seen med students and physicians there wonder if you're a troll too). Your posts here and there make that very obvious.

Nice try.

Even if you did have pharm acceptances, their field is about as saturated as they come. Enjoy your Walgreens/CVS destiny.

Every new grad pharmD I know is thoroughly disillusioned.

I think you said that in another thread, but it does not make it so because you said it...

It is a shame that there is not a way to ban people like this from posting comments

Dranger would you mind expanding on this opinion? I am active duty military and thinking of getting out soon. Florida is my home and where I hope to eventually settle after grad school. What about Florida makes it less desirable for APRNs?
