Washington Med Spa Compliance

Washington splits med spa oversight across three agencies, and the split is where most compliance mistakes start. The Washington Medical Commission writes the delegation rules for cosmetic injections and prescription devices, the Washington State Board of Nursing — the agency formerly known as the Nursing Care Quality Assurance Commission, or NCQAC — governs what ARNPs, RNs, and LPNs may do, and the Department of Licensing regulates esthetics, including the master esthetician licence that no neighbouring state issues. These guides work through injector scope, delegation and supervision, the good-faith exam, ownership, and documentation under all three.
