Section 259.6
Disposition versions
259.6. The board of directors may, after consultation with the council of midwives, the council of physicians, dentists and pharmacists or the midwifery services coordinator, as the case may be, take disciplinary measures against a midwife. The disciplinary measures that may be taken include a reprimand, modification or withdrawal of one or more rights under the contract and cancellation of the contract.
Every decision to take a disciplinary measure against a midwife must specify the reasons therefor and be based solely on lack of qualifications, incompetence, negligence, misconduct, non-compliance with the regulations of the institution or non-performance of the obligations determined in the contract.
Disciplinary measures must be taken in accordance with the procedure prescribed by a regulation of the Government made under section 506.2.
The executive director must send a copy of the decision to the professional order.
