SECTION 140:25-3-8. Miscellaneous provisions

(a)   An intern shall be allowed to perform only those duties which are lawful and ethical in the practice of chiropractic.

(b)   Any incident reports related to an intern's experience shall be maintained by the preceptor and shall be the sole property of the preceptor, except as may be otherwise provided by law; provided, however, upon receipt of a written request by the intern's college or the Board, the preceptor shall provide to the college or the Board a copy of such report.

(c)   A preceptor may request an intern's college to withdraw from an experience any intern:

(1)   whose performance, conduct, demeanor, or willingness to cooperate with co-workers or to serve patients is unsatisfactory;

(2)   whose personal characteristics prevent desirable relationships within the preceptor's chiropractic office, clinic or facility; or

(3)   whose health status is a detriment to the intern's experience.

(d)   A preceptor shall not be liable for the payment of any wage, salary or compensation of any kind for services performed by any instructor, supervisor or other person associated with the intern's college, and a preceptor shall not be required to cover any such person in any manner under his Worker's Compensation insurance policy.

(e)   In an emergency, as determined by a preceptor in his sole discretion, said preceptor shall have the right to summarily relieve an intern from a specific assignment or to summarily request an intern to leave the preceptor's chiropractic office, clinic or facility, pending determination of the intern's future assignment by the intern's college.
