# South Dakota dental CPR requirements

Answer: For dental CPR/BLS requirements in South Dakota, Dentovio's sourced CE notes say: CPR: dentists, hygienists, and RDAs must maintain a current CPR card (AHA Healthcare Provider, ARC Professional Rescuer, or equivalent with hands-on skills assessment). No specific mandated infection-control or opioid/controlled-substance CE topic was found in the board's published overview (beyond CPR and, for hygienists/RDAs, radiography). Confirm current CPR, BLS, hands-on skills, provider, renewal-cycle, and audit rules with the South Dakota dental board before renewing.
