Respiratory Care Practitioners
Respiratory Care Practitioners in the State of Vermont are governed by
the "Advisor" model of regulation, created by the Legislature. Two licensed
members of the profession are appointed by the Secretary of State to advise
the Director of the OPR on matters relating to the profession. Their mission
is public protection. The Director and the advisors carry out this mission
by: ensuring that applicants are qualified for licensure; setting standards
for the profession by proposing statutes and adopting administrative rules;
and, with the assistance of OPR staff, investigating complaints of
unprofessional conduct, taking disciplinary action against a licensee when
necessary to protect the public. On this page you will find links to the
laws governing this profession, as well as resources for applicants,
licensees, consumers and employers.
