What is required from a registrant upon renewal of their certification if they have an impairment?

Upon renewal of their certification, a registrant with an impairment is required to disclose their impairment. This requirement ensures that the appropriate regulatory body is aware of the registrant's condition, which may impact their ability to perform their professional duties safely and competently.

Disclosing an impairment allows for an assessment of the individual's capability to fulfill their responsibilities in a manner that protects public safety. It may lead to further evaluations or accommodations that could help the registrant continue their practice effectively without compromising the quality of care or services they provide.

In this context, proving full recovery, submitting a medical evaluation, or attending a rehabilitation program may be relevant in some situations, but they are not universally required for all registrants. The emphasis is on transparency regarding their condition, allowing regulatory bodies to make informed decisions regarding the individual's fitness to practice.
