Volunteer citizens who serve on the multiple health and related boards overseen by the Oregon Health Licensing Agency (OHLA) provide profession-specific expertise and a public/consumer perspective.
OHLA board and council members focus on the licensing and regulatory issues of the board or council to which they are appointed. They are not responsible for addressing issues of other OHLA boards and councils nor are they responsible for the operation of the OHLA central regulatory agency.
OHLA board and council members focus on training and educational standards, competency examinations, professional practice standards and codes of conduct, and advise the agency on disciplinary matters.
Members are called upon to serve on board/council committees to address profession-specific issues. Often, committee work requires an additional time commitment beyond regularly scheduled board meetings.
Collaboration between OHLA central agency staff and volunteer citizen board and council members is the key to successful regulation -- regulation whose primary focus is to protect the health and safety of Oregonians and the rights of Oregon consumers.
