Oppose- Current regulation already has strict requirement on Emergency Response
 

As a mother of two, I empathized with Nicole on her loss.  My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family in this difficult time.  However, all dentists and clinical team members are required to be up to date with CPR.  My office has all the emergency equipment including oxygen tank and AED.  We hold quarterly CPR refresher for all team members to go over emergency protocols and strategies as well as CPR techniques.  It is not a wise use of public resource to place another regulation that already in place.  Again, my deep condolence to Nicole and her family.
