A chiropodist who temporarily ceases to practise may only be replaced by a practitioner registered with the Association. The president of the regional or inter-regional council of the Order must be informed immediately.
The replacement may not exceed four months, unless an exemption is granted by the regional or inter-regional council.
It must be the subject of a written contract in accordance with a standard contract drawn up by the Conseil national de l’ordre.
At the end of the replacement period, all information relevant to the continuity of care must be sent to the holder.
