The mission of each board is to safeguard the health, safety, and welfare of Tennesseans by requiring those who practice health care professions within this state to be qualified. The boards interpret the laws, rules, and regulations to determine the appropriate standards of practice in an effort to ensure the highest degree of professional conduct. The Boards are also responsible for the investigation of alleged violations of the Practice Act and rules and are responsible for the discipline of licensees who are found guilty of such violations. Board members, with few exceptions, are appointed by the Governor. Tennessee statute mandates that specific health care professionals submit information to the Department, regarding details of their training, specialty certification, and practice. The Office of Consumer Right to Know is charged with seeking and collecting this information and providing it to consumers via the Department’s web site.
