The Board of Nursing Home Administrators hereby gives notice of the issuance of an Order regarding the Petition for Variance or Waiver for Shea Nicosia. The Notice of Petition for Variance or Waiver was published in Vol. 37, No. 27, of the July 8, 2011, Florida Administrative Weekly. The Board considered the Petition at a duly-noticed public meeting held on September 12, 2011. The petition requested a waiver or variance from the requirement imposed by Rule 64B10-11.007, Florida Administrative Code, with respect to the courses required to fulfill the 60 semester hour requirement for licensure.

The Board’s Order, filed on September 20, 2011, denies the Petition for Variance or Waiver of Rule 64B10-11.007, Florida Administrative Code. Petitioner has complied with the requirements of Section 120.542, Florida Statues and Chapter 28-104, Florida Administrative Code. However, Petitioner has not demonstrated that she has met, or will meet, the underlying purpose of the statute by other means, and that she has failed to show either a substantial hardship or that the application of the rule to Petitioner would violate principles of fairness.

A copy of the Order or additional information may be obtained by contacting: Bruce Deterding, Executive Director, Board of Nursing Home Administrators, 4052 Bald Cypress Way, Bin #C07, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-3257.
