Answer:

Someone practicing healthcare without the proper credentials has committed a criminal law violation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Healthcare is an activity that must be performed by qualified personnel. In the case of a person who practices medicine or nursing without credentials, that person would be committing a criminal offense by endangering the lives of others.

Sometimes the diagnosis, management and treatment of a sick person is difficult, even for a physician or nurse with knowledge. A person without the proper knowledge, and without credentials, could make a sick person worse or kill them, which is considered a serious crime.

The other options do not apply because:

  • Commonwealth law are the laws that govern any sovereign state, identified as a representative government.
  • Civil law refers to the rules that govern the civil relations of citizens, including laws on real estate, commerce, inheritance or civil union in marriage.
  • Constitutional law refers to everything related to the articles and precepts established by each country's constitution.
