Ohio Admin. Code 4761-7-04 - Supervision
As provided for in division (B) of section 4761.05 of the Revised Code, a limited permit holder must work under the supervision of a respiratory care professional (RCP) and may not be supervised by any other person, including those persons licensed to practice in any other profession.
"To practice under the supervision of a respiratory care
professional" as used in division (B) of section
4761.05 of the Revised Code
requires that an RCP be readily available in the facility and responsible at
all times for the direction and actions of a limited permit holder under their
supervision. Three types of limited permits are issued by the board:
student-based, employment-based, and graduate-based. The level of supervision
and the duties assigned may vary based upon the type of limited permit holder
that is being supervised. The RCP shall determine the appropriate level of
supervision and assigned respiratory care duties for an employment-based
limited permit holder taking into consideration institutional competency
reviews and work performance. For student limited permit holders, the
appropriate level of supervision and assigned respiratory care duties shall be
based, in part, on competencies approved on the verification of education form
completed
on the verification of education form.
Graduate-based limited permit holders may practice a full scope of respiratory
care duties, but must still be supervised in accordance with this rule.
Regardless of the type of limited permit held, an RCP shall not delegate to a
less qualified person any service which requires the skill, knowledge and
judgment of an RCP.
