Opposition to Additional Regulation
 

I oppose this NOIRA to regulate additional training needed for dental assistant I's. These employees are already required to go through extensive training to meet OSHA and CDC requirements. Additional training needed would create an unnecessary burden for practices in Virginia. In addition, it could pose difficulty for practices in more remote areas of the state to meet these requirements.
