The Board establishes rules and regulations to ensure the integrity and competence of licensed dieticians and investigates complaints for unprofessional conduct. The Board is the link between the consumer and the licensed dieticians and, as such, promotes the public health, welfare and safety. Licensees are responsible for meeting all licensure requirements and should review the rules carefully and frequently.
