Utah Admin. Code R156-28-502 - Unprofessional Conduct
(1) Unprofessional
conduct includes:
(a) deviating from the
minimum standards of veterinary practice in Section
R156-28-503;
(b) permitting unlicensed assistive personnel
to perform duties that the individual is not competent by education, training,
or experience to perform; or
(c)
failing to conform to the generally accepted and recognized standards and
ethics of the profession, including the Principles of Veterinary Medical Ethics
of the American Veterinarian Medical Association (AVMA), as approved by the

(Principles).
(2) If a
licensee fails to establish the veterinarian-client-patient relationship as
required in Section II of the Principles, the failure may not excuse the
veterinarian from complying with other duties that would be imposed on the
veterinarian if the veterinarian had properly established the
veterinarian-client-patient relationship.
