Notice of the hearing shall be given and the hearing conducted in accordance with the Administrative Procedures Act, Chapter 101 of Title 29.

(c) Where either the complainant or the practitioner is in disagreement with the action of the Board, either person may appeal the Board’s decision to the Superior Court within 30 days of service, or of the postmarked date of the copy of the Board’s decision. Upon such appeal, the Court shall hear the evidence on the record, and any stay of the Board’s decision shall be granted according to the Administrative Procedures Act [Chapter 101 of Title 29].
