- John S. Wilgis on behalf of the Florida Society for Respiratory Care; 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 Weekly. 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 Rule 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.
- Thomas Goldman, Esquire.; The Board of Respiratory Care hereby gives notice of the issuance of an Order regarding the Petition for Declaratory Statement, filed on October 9, 2012, by Thomas Goldman, Esquire. The Notice of Petition for Declaratory Statement was published in Vol. 38, No. 72, of the November 15, 2012 Florida Administrative Weekly. The Board considered the Petition at a duly-noticed public meeting on November 15, 2012, via telephone conference call. The Petitioner sought the Board’s interpretation of Sections 468.355, 468.358, 468.365 and 468.366, Florida Statutes, and clarification as to whether a respiratory care license is required for his client, a business entity, and its employees to provide hyperbaric oxygen therapy treatment.
The Board found that the Petitioner failed to identify how the cited statutes applied to or affected Petitioner’s intended course of conduct and thus found the petition to be legally insufficient. Accordingly, the Board declined to answer, and denied, the Petition. The Board filed its Final Order on April 3, 2017.
