Can a registered nurse inject Botox or filler in South Dakota?

Who treats · part of The Practice Perimeter

South Dakota enumerates the certified nurse practitioner scope as a list of powers ADDED to the registered nurse scope. Within the CNP role and population focus, a certified nurse practitioner may conduct an advanced assessment; order and interpret diagnostic procedures; establish primary and differential diagnoses; and prescribe, order, administer and furnish therapeutic measures — including diagnosing, prescribing and instituting therapy or referrals, and prescribing, procuring, administering and furnishing pharmacological agents, over-the-counter, legend and controlled drugs listed on Schedule II included. The same subsection extends to planning and initiating a therapeutic regimen that includes ordering and prescribing nonpharmacological interventions, naming durable medical equipment and medical devices among them. Physician assistants are scoped by capability on the face of these claims: a PA may provide the enumerated medical and surgical services FOR WHICH THE PA has been prepared by education, training and experience and is competent to perform — and among the licensure criteria on record is that the board MAY grant a license to an applicant who has either filed an affidavit attesting to at least six thousand practice hours or entered into a collaborative agreement.

← All South Dakota rules and changes · MedSpaRadar is regulatory monitoring and reference: it summarizes public laws, regulations and agency actions and links each to its source. It is not legal, medical, or compliance advice, and using it creates no attorney-client relationship. A summary can lag its source or leave out detail, and monitoring itself can be interrupted — so an absence of alerts means nothing reached you, not that nothing happened. Read the cited source, check its effective date, and confirm any change to your operations or clinical practice with qualified health-law counsel and your medical director.
