Below is supposed to be the average salaries of Nurse Practitioners in the Gainesville,FL area. I don’t think that the salaries are that high. The most I’ve made as a new grad has been 73,000 in Family Practice. Of course, if this is the most correct numbers, I would more than happily commute to Gainesville for a job. Seriously, I’m looking for a job right now. Serious inquires only.

What’s a Nurse Practitioner (A.R.N.P.)

A Nurse Practitioner is a Professional Registered Nurse who has advanced education and clinical training in a health care specialty. Florida Board of Medicine designates the term for the nurse practitioner as “A.R.N.P” or Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioner. Most Nurse Practitioners have national board certification in their area of expertise and hold Master’s or Doctoral degrees. Nurse Practitioners serve as primary health care providers for children and adults during health and illness. Their goal is to help people of all ages stay as healthy as possible. They do this by teaching people and treating their acute illnesses (such as infections) and chronic disease (such as hypertension, diabetes, and many others).

Can Nurse Practitioners prescribe medications?

Yes. How a Nurse Practitioner prescribes medications is regulated by each state’s Nurse Practice Act. In Florida, Nurse Practitioners have prescriptive authority through written agreements with a collaborating physician. In Florida, ARNP’s are restricted and cannot prescribe controlled substances. Through legislation, we are working on this.

Why Choose a Nurse Practitioner?

Nurse Practitioners are also trained to promote health and prevent disease through comprehensive health care and education. More and more people are choosing a Nurse Practitioner for their regular health care provider because Nurse Practitioners are highly trained health professionals who:take time to listen to you and your family’s worries and concerns, explain the details of health problems, medications, and other topics to help you understand how to take care of yourself,provide individualized care,work in collaboration with physicians and other health professionals to insure that you receive the best possible health carereally care about you, your health, your family, and the community you live in,treat you when you are sick,teach you how to care for yourself when ill and how to stay healthy
