Where the Department of Public Health suspended a respondent’s temporary certification as an emergency medical technician, the suspension should be upheld given that the respondent was disciplined in Maine.
“DPH has met its burden of proving that the Respondent’s temporary certification should be suspended. First, the Respondent’s sanction in Maine was for inaccurately recording material information and falsifying a healthcare provider record. This conduct would be grounds for discipline in Massachusetts. … Second, the Respondent did not report this discipline to Massachusetts in a timely manner. Accordingly, he also violated 105 Code Mass. Regs. §170.940(R).”
