Patient Safety – CPR Training
Sunday, January 24th, 2010Q: Are dental professionals required to have Healthcare Provider level CPR training for license renewal?
A: Although I highly recommend that all dental professionals, from front office to back get the Healthcare Provider level CPR training, the answer to your question currently is No. Referring to the Dental Practice Act, Article 4, Chapter 1, Section 1016, mandatory courses required by the board for license renewal is the Dental Practice Act, Dental Board Infection Control Regulations 1005, and a course in Basic Life Support (BLS) CPR approved by American Red Cross or American Heart Association.
When it comes to patient safety the best training and the best skills is paramount – for onsite CPR Training in the Greater Bay Area, I recommend contacting Roland Guy at Critical Care Solutions, 916.226.6053, visit their website: www.criticalcaresolutions.com
