Which statements about what board rules must specify are true? (1) the procedures chiropractors may perform; (2) equipment prohibited and its use; (3) may require additional training or certification.

• A. Only the procedures chiropractors may perform
• B. The procedures chiropractors may perform, the prohibited equipment and its use, and may require additional training or certification
• C. The prohibited equipment and its use only
• D. None of the above

Answer: (B)

The board’s rules are meant to set the boundaries of practice: they define what procedures chiropractors may perform, specify which equipment is prohibited and how it may be used, and can require additional training or certification. This combination protects patient safety by clarifying scope, restricting risky tools, and ensuring practitioners have the necessary competencies. That’s why the answer includes all three elements. Saying only the procedures, or only the prohibited equipment, or none of the above would miss important regulatory pieces, since each of these areas helps establish a safe and accountable practice.
