    The Board of Nursing Home Administrators hereby gives notice:
    of the issuance of an Order regarding the Petition for Variance or Waiver for Megan Canada. The Notice of Petition for Variance or Waiver was published in Vol. 37, No. 39, of the September 30, 2011, Florida Administrative Weekly. The Board considered the Petition at a duly-noticed public meeting held on August 19, 2011. The petition requested a waiver or variance from the requirement imposed by Rule 64B10-16.001, Florida Administrative Code, with respect to the following licensure requirement: the prerequisites for approval into the 1,000 hour AIT program.
    The Board’s Order, filed on September 6, 2011, grants the Petition for Variance or Waiver of Rule 64B10-16.001, Florida Administrative Code, finding that Petitioner has complied with the requirements of Section 120.542(2), Florida Statutes. Specifically, Petitioner has demonstrated that Petitioner’s MAT 540, Quantitative Methods is accepted to fulfill the computer requirement of college training in health administration. The Petitioners’ 450 hours of volunteer work and in-service training hours at Winter Park Care and Rehabilitation Center are accepted to fulfill the aging requirement of college training in health administration. The Petitioner now meets the requirements of a 1,000 hour administrator-in-training program. Additionally, Petitioner has demonstrated that strict application of Rule 64B10-16.001, Florida Administrative Code, would create a substantial hardship or violate principles of fairness within the meaning of Section 120.542(2), Florida Statutes. Based upon the foregoing, the Board determined that Petitioner is eligible for a waiver or variance of Section 64B10-16.001, Florida Administrative Code.
