Participation in a rehabilitation program shall not be a defense to any disciplinary action that may be taken by the board. This section does not preclude the board from commencing disciplinary action against a physical therapist or physical therapist assistant who is terminated unsuccessfully from the program. That disciplinary action may not include as evidence any confidential information.
(Amended by Stats. 2013, Ch. 389, Sec. 69. (SB 198) Effective January 1, 2014.)
