Respiratory Care Board

The Respiratory Care Practice Act became effective January 1, 1996. Respiratory care and

cardiorespiratory care include direct and indirect services in the implementation of treatment, management,

disease prevention, diagnostic testing, monitoring and care of patients with deficiencies and abnormalities

associated with the cardiopulmonary system. The Board is made up of nine members appointed by the

Secretary, consisting of four members currently engaged in the practice of respiratory care with a

minimum of three years of practice in the state of Illinois, three qualified medical directors and two hospital

administrators. The Board advises the Secretary on questions involving standards of professional

conduct, discipline and qualifications of candidates for licensure under the Act.
