Respiratory Care Practice Act

The Respiratory Care Practice Act regulates the practice of respiratory care within a state, establishing a certification requirement for practitioners and setting the educational qualifications they must meet to enter the field. It creates an administrative body responsible for implementing and enforcing the act, including reviewing applicants and issuing certificates. The act also grants authority to discipline certificate holders through suspension or revocation, and provides a path for reinstatement.
