Which board oversees the chiropractic profession in Florida?

  1. Board of Medical Examiners

  2. Board of Chiropractic Medicine

  3. Department of Health

  4. Chiropractic Council

The correct answer is: Board of Chiropractic Medicine

The Board of Chiropractic Medicine is the regulatory body specifically responsible for overseeing the chiropractic profession in Florida. This board manages the licensing, regulation, and overall practice standards for chiropractors. It ensures that practitioners comply with state laws and standards and addresses any disciplinary actions or complaints against them. This targeted oversight helps maintain the integrity and professionalism of chiropractic care within the state. The other options do not have the same direct authority over chiropractors. The Board of Medical Examiners focuses on the oversight of medical doctors and may not address issues specific to chiropractic practices. The Department of Health has a broader role in public health and oversees various health professionals, but it does not exclusively govern the chiropractic field. The Chiropractic Council, while it may be involved in advocating for chiropractors or providing resources, lacks the jurisdiction and regulatory power of the Board of Chiropractic Medicine.
