    The Board of Respiratory Care hereby gives notice of the issuance of a Final Order Denying Petition for Declaratory Statement, filed on May 6, 2011, by John S. Wilgis on behalf of the Florida Society for Respiratory Care. The Notice of Petition for Declaratory Statement was published in Vol. 37, No. 22, of the June 3, 2011 Florida Administrative Register. The Board considered the Petition at a duly-noticed public meeting on July 8, 2011. The Petitioner sought the Board’s clarification as to whether a respiratory therapist may legally accept orders from a physician extender, referencing Sections 468.352(2), 468.352(6), 468.352(7), 468.352(8), 468.352(9), 468.352(10)(c) and 468.365(1)(v), Florida Statutes. Petitioner also referenced paragraph 64B32-5.001(1)(v), Florida Administrative Code. The Board found that the Petition as submitted was not applicable to one person but rather to all licensees and was not appropriate for determination by means of a declaratory statement. Accordingly, the Board denied the Petition. The Board filed its final order on July 28, 2011.
