§59-1271.1. Temporary suspension of license.
Notwithstanding any provisions of the Administrative Procedures Act, the State Board of Licensed Social Workers may, without a hearing, temporarily suspend a license for not more than sixty (60) days if the Board finds that a person licensed under the Social Worker’s Licensing Act has violated a law or rule that the Board is empowered to enforce, and if continued practice by the licensed person would create an imminent risk of harm to the public. The suspension shall take effect upon written notice to the licensed person specifying the statute or rule violated. At the time it issues the suspension notice, the Board shall schedule a disciplinary hearing to be held pursuant to the Administrative Procedures Act within thirty (30) days and shall provide the licensed person with notice of the date of hearing.
