To earn points for CE, it is important you submit a complete listing of each individual educational session you attended during a conference or program. For example, if you attend ASPMN?’s National Conference and earn 18 contact hours, you must individually list each session title on the Category A verification form.CE programs, including home-study or self-study programs must be sponsored by accredited or approved providers such as a state nursing association, the American Nurses Credentialing Center, American Academy of Nurse Practitioners, or other professional associations.Contact Hour (CME, CNE, CEU) = 60 minutes = 1 AP PointIt is not necessary to submit a copy of the CE certificate. However, the ASPMN? AP Commission reserves the right to selectively audit portfolios and request documentation of programs attended and CE’s awarded. Therefore, applicants are advised to keep the certificate of attendance or completion that includes your name, date, program title and the number of contact hours awarded.-93980079375CATEGORY A: CONTINUING EDUCATIONVERIFICATION FORM020000CATEGORY A: CONTINUING EDUCATIONVERIFICATION FORMName: Click or tap here to enter text.Program Date(s)Title of Session/CourseSession/Course ProviderApproved Accrediting OrganizationPain Management (PM)Professional Practice (PP)8/2017Example: Management of Pain related to Cancer TreatmentsCancer SocietyOhio Nurses Association39/2018Example: Creating a Business PlanSB UniversityNYS Nursing Association 5Total Points(Transfer this total to Point Log)**No additional documentation is required for Category A**-603250-225425CATEGORY B: PROGRAM OR PROJECT ACTIVITIESINSTRUCTIONS00CATEGORY B: PROGRAM OR PROJECT ACTIVITIESINSTRUCTIONS10 points are required; up to 40 points are allowed. To receive points in this category, your documentation must demonstrate having had the primary responsibility for developing, implementing and evaluating the program, conducting the project, or case.Activities in this category more clearly demonstrate the achievement of AP and include more complex activities requiring multiple steps for completion and/or significant preparation. This is reflected in the larger number of points assigned to these activities. Some of these activities may be performed due to employer directives but some are independent of employment status. One activity (e.g. QI project resulting in a clinical pathway development and data collection/analysis) may be used for multiple activities (e.g. B5, B6, B7). A separate verification form is required for each activity (e.g. B5, B6 and B7). * Please refer to “Definitions of AP Terms” at the end of this packet for complete description and examples of activities. **ACTIVITIES, POINTS AND REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION ARE LISTED ON THE FOLLOWING PAGE**Category B ActivitiesAP PointsRequired DocumentationB1: Establish a nursing* or multidisciplinary pain management* serviceWrite a proposal 10Provide a copy of the documentDevelop initial policies and procedures5Provide a copy of the documentDevelop billing procedure(s)10Provide a copy of the documentB2: Establish an independent (self-employed) pain management practice or consulting business25Complete information on following page B3.
