Training & certification expected
No state-mandated injector training beyond licensure; however, physician oversight and documentation are essential.
The license that lets you inject
MD, DO, NP, PA under physician supervision; RN injection limited/prohibited
If you’re an RN
No, or only under very limited circumstances; varies by board interpretation — verify with counsel
Why the order still matters
Required; in-person exam mandatory before treatment Training gets you the skill; a valid order or good-faith exam is what keeps the treatment lawful.
What to verify in Pennsylvania
Consult Pennsylvania Medical Board counsel on RN injection authority before hiring; ensure physician ownership or controlling interest in the medical spa entity.
