In addition to ethical standards, what else does the Primary Supervising Licensee need to ensure compliance with?

The Primary Supervising Licensee is responsible for ensuring that all activities and practices within their supervision adhere to the regulations set forth by the governing board. These regulations are designed to maintain professional standards and protect the welfare of both clients and practitioners in the field of speech-language pathology. Compliance with board regulations encompasses a wide range of areas, including practice guidelines, ethical considerations, and licensing requirements, ensuring that the practice operates within the legal framework established for the profession.

While continuing education is essential for maintaining licensure and staying informed about best practices, it is a requirement tied to the individual licensee rather than a specific compliance duty of the supervising licensee. Financial standards and client satisfaction, while important aspects of a practice, do not specifically pertain to the regulatory requirements that a supervising licensee must oversee. In contrast, adherence to board regulations directly impacts the ethical and operational integrity of the practice, making it a fundamental responsibility of the Primary Supervising Licensee.
