What Happens During a Board of Nursing Case?
What Happens During a Maryland Board of Nursing Case?
A Maryland Board of Nursing case begins when someone files a complaint with the board. The complaint is then forwarded to a board investigator who initiates an investigation. The investigator sends a letter to the licensee which usually contains a general description of the complaint, and indicates that the licensee should submit a written response to the allegations, as well as set up a time to talk with the investigator.
The investigator obtains sworn and recorded statements from those who have information regarding the complaint. The investigator can also subpoena documents.
After the investigation is over, the investigator produces a Report of Investigation for review by the Board. The Board then votes on whether to prosecute the case against the licensee, dismiss the case, or resolve the case in some other way. Board of Nursing cases are prosecuted by the Office of the Attorney General.
If the case is not dismissed, it will resolve either by negotiation, or after an evidentiary hearing is held.
Legal representation is available to you at all stages of a Maryland Board of Nursing case.
