The Nurse Practitioner Council of Miami-Dade Inc. would like to recognize the over 1,900 nurse practitioners in Miami-Dade county for their high quality, cost-effective, patient-centered, personalized healthcare they deliver every day. We look forward in continuing to advocate for the role of the nurse practitioner in Miami-Dade county and throughout the state by ways of advocacy, education and mentoring within this group. Governor Rick Scott has issued a proclamation in observance all week long of Nurse Practitioner Week in Florida. Please feel free to share this with your colleagues and institutions. We look forward to seeing you at one of our upcoming meetings and hope you will become a catalyst for change in NP practice in Florida. Please join us in celebrating and thank you for all you do!
