CSRS for the RDH: Everything You Need To Know NOW!! – 2HR CE

This concise, compliance-forward course is designed to help registered dental hygienists navigate their exciting new role in Controlled Substances Reporting System (CSRS) queries — a responsibility that is optional, vaguely defined, operationally inefficient, and carries absolutely no clinical authority.

Participants will learn how to access the CSRS on behalf of a supervising dentist, what the data looks like once they’re in, and—most importantly—what not to do with it. Emphasis is placed on understanding how responsibility, liability, and clinical decision-making remain firmly with the prescriber, regardless of who clicks the button.

Topics include a high-level review of delegation language, common misconceptions around “best practices,” and how optional regulatory tools can quietly evolve into perceived obligations. The course concludes with a practical discussion on why CSRS access is logged, auditable, and ultimately designed for oversight rather than efficiency.

Perfect for RDHs who want to stay informed, stay compliant, and stay very clear about where their role begins—and ends.
