Why does the application ask about my mental and physical health status?
The Board understands that medical or mental health treatment is a normal part of many people's lives and receiving treatment such as counseling or therapy does not alone disqualify a licensee. However, the Board is obligated to determine whether a licensee is physically and mentally fit to practice and, therefore, must inquire to the extent necessary to make this determination. While the application does include a question pertaining to impairment, the question has been thoughtfully written to limit overly broad probing language that might dissuade health professionals from seeking treatment and reporting their conditions.
