How does the Arizona Board of Chiropractic Examiners address practice violations?

The Arizona Board of Chiropractic Examiners addresses practice violations through a structured process that involves conducting hearings and issuing disciplinary actions as deemed appropriate. This approach allows the Board to thoroughly investigate complaints and evaluate the circumstances surrounding each alleged violation.

By holding hearings, the Board ensures that due process is followed, giving the accused practitioner an opportunity to present their case and defend against the allegations. This process not only aims to uphold the standards of practice within the chiropractic community but also protects the public by holding practitioners accountable for their actions. Disciplinary actions may range from reprimands to license suspensions or revocations, depending on the severity of the violation. Such a systematic and fair process ensures a balanced approach to maintaining professional standards in the chiropractic field.
