PLEASE NOTE:

Effective June 23, 2017, under HB453, in accordance with 464.012 Florida Statutes, practicing ARNPs must maintain their protocol

onsite at their place of employment. The Board of Nursing will no longer be required to receive, review, or maintain Advanced

Registered Nurse Practitioner protocols.

464.012(3), F.S. An advanced registered nurse practitioner shall perform those functions authorized in this section within the

framework of an established protocol which must be maintained onsite at the location or locations at which an advanced registered

nurse practitioner practices. In the case of multiple supervising physicians in the same group, an advanced registered nurse

practitioner must enter into a supervisory protocol with at least one physician within the physician group practice.

The supervising physician is responsible for submitting a notice to the Board of Medicine that they have entered into a supervisory

relationship with an ARNP.

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
