The bill amends section 464.015 of the Florida Statutes to clarify the use of professional nursing titles and abbreviations. It introduces a new subsection (10) that stipulates that only individuals who hold a valid license in Florida or a multistate license to practice professional nursing are permitted to use specific titles such as Doctor of Nursing Practice (D.N.P.) and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.). Additionally, it mandates that holders of doctoral degrees must specify their profession when using the term "doctor."

The bill also redesignates the existing subsection (10) as subsection (11) to accommodate this new provision. The effective date for this legislation is set for July 1, 2026.
