Generally your out of state documents are ok. But there are some differences in FL laws that could be important to you. Personal rep may not qualify if not a FL resident or in your bloodline.
Best to do what you are doing, look for a FL "elder" attorney.
Look at Gerald R Colen Florida Elder law, Asset Protection, Estate Planning Attorney. He meets clients in Ocala.
