This amendment aligns the rule with the governing statute, section 1009.66, Florida Statutes. The purpose of the Nursing Student Loan Forgiveness Program is to increase employment and retention of registered nurses and licensed practical nurses who are working in eligible health care facilities in Florida. In 2012, the Florida Legislature transferred administrative responsibility for the program to the Florida Department of Education from the Florida Department of Health. Rules 6A-20.051, 6A-20.052, and 6A-20.053 are being proposed for repeal. Much of the content in these rules has been superseded by implementation changes resulting from the transfer of the program to the Florida Department of Education.
