NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT on September 11, 2007, the Board of Nursing has issued an order.

The Board of Nursing has issued an Order on the Petition for Variance or Waiver, which was filed on September 11, 2007 on behalf of Barbara McDermid, PhD, ARNP, LCSW. The Notice of Petition for Variance or Waiver was published in Vol. 33, No. 41, of the October 12, 2007, F.A.W. On the basis of preventing a violation of principles of fairness for reasons explained in the Petition, the Petitioner requested a variance or waiver of paragraph 64B9-3.002(1)(f), F.A.C., entitled, “Certification in More Than One Category,” that she be granted a permanent waiver from the national certification in a second category requirement. The Board of Nursing considered the Petition at its meeting held on December 6, 2007, in Miami, Florida. The Petitioner having withdrawn her petition upon discussion, the Board’s Order, filed on January 3, 2008, therefore dismissed the petition.

A copy of the Order may be obtained by contacting: Rick Garcia, Executive Director, Board of Nursing, 4052 Bald Cypress Way, Bin C07, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-3259.
