Arizona Occupational Therapy Board Probation Attorney

Arizona Occupational Therapy Board Probation Attorney

Probation from the Arizona Occupational Therapy Board against the licenses of occupational therapists in Arizona is offered through a Consent Agreement.  The Consent Agreement requires the accountant to do certain things (drug testing, work supervision, counseling, continuing education).  Or alternatively, refrain from doing things (using alcohol, prescribing schedule drugs, seeing certain patients, etc.). The Arizona Occupational Therapy Board can place accountants on probation through:

  • Stipulated Rehabilitation Agreement
  • Interim Practice Restriction
  • Decree of Censure with Probation
  • Letter of Reprimand with Probation
  • Practice Limitation

Occupational Therapists who hold a license in Arizona can face disciplinary actions by the Arizona Occupational Therapy Board for many different reasons.  If the Occupational Therapy Board determines formal licensing action is necessary it will happen after the completion of an investigation. It’s the job of the Board to review any complaint alleging a violation of the Arizona Medical Practice Act and Arizona law.  Thus, at an Arizona Occupational Therapy Board Meeting, the Board will vote to determine the outcome of each investigation, thus, a defense attorney may be needed.  The Board can vote on a non-disciplinary outcome or vote to offer the occupational therapist formal discipline.

Responding to Practice Complaints and Investigations

After receiving an Arizona Occupational Therapy Board Complaint or self-report, an occupational therapist receives a notice from the Board requesting additional information as well as a response to allegations found in the complaint. From here, the Occupational Therapy Board assigns an investigator to the complaint and they begin to collect evidence. The documents and evidence collected includes:

  • Patient medical records
  • Employment files from the occupational therapist’s employer and business
  • Criminal records
  • Interviews of people associated with the Board Complaint (These interviewees can include the patient, medical director, colleagues, etc.)

Arizona Occupational Therapy Board Disciplinary Actions

When an occupational therapist is facing a complaint or investigation by their medical board, they may also face Arizona Occupational Therapy Board Disciplinary Actions. Facing disciplinary action can have vast repercussions on a medical career. This can include license probation, suspension or revocation. It can also jeopardize employment. An occupational therapist under investigation can face termination at their current job after receiving a complaint or after the Board initiates an investigation.

There are certain allegations that can cause an occupational therapist to receive disciplinary action. These include:

  • Improper record keeping
  • Reporting false information
  • Negligence
  • Physical abuse of patients
  • Sexual abuse of patients
  • Criminal convictions
  • Substance Abuse
  • Disruptive Conduct
