North Carolina dental CPR requirements

For dental CPR/BLS requirements in North Carolina, Dentovio's sourced CE notes say: 15 hours / year (annual; ~30 per 2 years) 6 hours / year (annual; ~12 per 2 years) No general CE requirement for basic dental assistants; DA II must maintain CPR and complete CE as needed to retain expanded functions Annual renewal (license year ends March 31; CE measured per calendar year). 0102 ALL 6 hrs may be self-study if a post-course test and certificate are obtained, and courses must relate to clinical patient care from a Board-approved sponsor; current CPR certification required IN ADDITION to the 6 hrs (CPR hours do NOT count toward the 6). Hygienists administering local anesthetics: maintain CPR plus 2 hrs/year covering local-anesthetic technique, contraindications, complications, and dental office emergencies. Confirm current CPR, BLS, hands-on skills, provider, renewal-cycle, and audit rules with the North Carolina dental board before renewing.
