FL S0792

Authorizes registered interns under pharmacist supervision to administer vaccines to adults, in addition to pharmacists administering vaccines independently.

Expands vaccines that pharmacists and supervised interns may administer to include all vaccines on the CDC's recommended adult immunization schedule as of February 2015, CDC-recommended vaccines for international travel as of July 1, 2015, and vaccines approved by the board during a gubernatorial emergency declaration.

Requires a one-to-one supervision ratio when a registered intern administers vaccines, meaning one pharmacist must supervise one registered intern.

Takes effect July 1, 2015.
