NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT on March 3, 2008, the Board of Nursing, received a petition for Variance or Waiver filed on March 3, 2008 on behalf of Lda Abreu. Pursuant to Chapter 28-104, F.A.C., and Section 120.542, F.S., Petitioner seeks a permanent variance or waiver of an examination requirement under Rule 64B9-4.002, F.A.C., entitled “Requirements for Certification.” Specifically, the Petitioner requests that on the basis of principles of fairness, as described in the Petition, the Board grant a permanent variance or waiver of the requirement under Rule 64B9-4.002, F.A.C., that is now preventing the Petitioner to sit for a certification exam for OB/GYN, Neonatal Nursing in the State of Florida. Should the Board decide not to grant a permanent waiver in this matter, the Petitioner requests in the alternative that the Board consider a temporary waiver, with stipulations as stated in the Petition, or preferably to obtain licensure by endorsement as allowed under Section 464.009, F.S., entitled “Licensure by Endorsement.”

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