Date Petition Received | 05/10/2019 |
Petitioner | Joyce Samples |
Requesting that the Board review to amend the requirements to be a supervisor. Currently
the requirements are 2 yrs post licensure work and either graduate class or 20 hour
supervision training. I am requesting the Board amend the criteria from either 2 years
to 5 years post licensure experience OR have the individual document experience in
all clinical areas. For example, working 2 yrs post licensure in administration should
not be allowed to qualify since no clinical work has been performed.
Agency Plan
In accordance with Virginia law, the petition will be filed with the Register of Regulations
and published on June 10, 2019 with comment requested until July 9, 2019. It will
also be placed on the Virginia Regulatory Townhall and available for comments to be
posted electronically.
At its first meeting following the close of comment, which is scheduled for August
16, 2019, the Board will consider the request to amend regulations and all comment
received in support or opposition. The petitioner will be informed of the board's
response and any action it approves.
