On April 20, 2020, a disciplinary panel of the Texas Board of Respiratory Care temporarily suspended, without notice, the Texas respiratory care practitioner permit of Aubrey Olivia Ehling, RCP (Lic. No. RCP00018439), after determining her continuation in the practice of respiratory care poses a continuing threat to public welfare. The suspension was effective immediately.

The Board panel found that Ms. Ehling was terminated from her employment on or about March 4, 2020 due to a positive drug screening that was conducted after Ms. Ehling reported to work while she appeared to be under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

A temporary suspension hearing with notice will be held as soon as practicable with 10 days’ notice to Ms. Ehling, unless the hearing is specifically waived by Ms. Ehling

The temporary suspension remains in place until the Board takes further action.
