N.M. Admin. Code § 16.12.12.8 - DISCIPLINARY PHILOSOPHY
The board operates its disciplinary program with the ultimate goals of protecting the citizens of New Mexico and ensuring professionalism in the nursing profession. In carrying out this mandate, the board considers all alleged violations based on the merits of each case. Unless the licensee or applicant posed or poses a real or potential danger to the public, the board will consider, but may not eventually utilize, remedial measures of corrective action rather than denial, suspension, or revocation of a license or certificate.
Notes
