32-3446. Substance abuse recovery program; consent agreement
In lieu of a disciplinary proceeding prescribed by this article, the board may permit a licensee to actively participate in a board-approved substance abuse recovery program if:
1. The board has evidence that the licensee is an impaired professional.
2. The licensee has not been convicted of a felony relating to a controlled substance in a court of competent jurisdiction.
3. The licensee enters into a consent agreement and complies with all of the terms of the agreement, including making satisfactory progress in the program and adhering to any limitations on the licensee's practice imposed by the board to protect the public. If a licensee does not enter into a consent agreement, the board may begin an investigation and disciplinary proceedings.
4. As part of the agreement between the licensee and the board, the licensee signs a waiver that allows the substance abuse recovery program to release information to the board if the licensee does not comply with the requirements of this section or is unable to practice with reasonable skill or safety.
