i was wondering if anyone knows in what capacity may a cst close the skin of a patient. we have a 'rogue' cst who is gung-ho on what he can do. he has even completed a first-assist home study program.....but is not certified as an FA. he has been observed closing the skin w/o the physician present (the physician knew he was closing). i don't think that they are licensed to perform any medical procedure without the proper certs. or license. any info and reference sources would be helpful.
