The bill proposes the creation of a new section, 465.1894, in the Florida Statutes, which authorizes pharmacists to administer medications under specific circumstances. This authority is granted at the direction of licensed physicians (under chapters 458 or 459) during life-threatening emergency events at Level 1 or Level 2 Trauma Centers. To qualify for this task, pharmacists must either have completed an accredited postgraduate residency training program or have at least three years of direct patient care experience in a hospital setting. Hospitals are required to maintain documentation verifying that pharmacists meet these criteria.

Additionally, the bill mandates that the relevant board will adopt rules to facilitate the administration of this new section. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2026.
