Training & certification expected
No state-mandated injector training beyond licensure; however, physician-approved delegation and protocol documents are required.
The license that lets you inject
MD/DO, NP/PA under physician supervision, RN under physician delegation.
If you’re an RN
Yes, under physician delegation; RN must inject under standing orders or protocols from a supervising physician.
Why the order still matters
Required; in-person exam mandatory before injectable treatment. Training gets you the skill; a valid order or good-faith exam is what keeps the treatment lawful.
What to verify in Ohio
Establish a formal physician medical director agreement and ensure all injectable protocols are documented and approved by the medical director before operations begin.
