A.__Only a duly licensed physician, registered physician's |
assistant, registered nurse or a person certified by the |
Department of Human Services under certification standards |
set by that department, acting at the request of a law |
enforcement officer, may draw a specimen of blood to |
determine the blood-alcohol level or drug concentration of a |
person who is complying with the duty to submit to a |
chemical test.__This limitation does not apply to the taking |
of breath or urine specimens.__When a person draws a |
specimen of blood at the request of a law enforcement |
officer, that person may issue a certificate that states |
that the person is in fact a duly licensed or certified |
person as required by this subsection and that the person |
followed the proper procedure for drawing a specimen of |
blood to determine the blood-alcohol level or drug |
concentration.__That certificate, when duly signed and sworn |
to by the person, is admissible as evidence in any court of |
the State.__It is prima facie evidence that the person was |
duly licensed or certified and that the person followed the |
proper procedure for drawing a specimen of blood for |
chemical testing, unless, with 10 days' written notice to |
the prosecution, the defendant requests that the person |
testify as to licensure or certification, or the procedure |
for drawing the specimen of blood. |
