Equipment for Pain Management Course/Certification



Initiative TitleEquipment for Pain Management Course/Certification
Submitted in Previous Year(s)No
Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale

The units that we have are 14 years old. The retention rate has increased and we have had larger class sizes and less equipment to use during the skill development and testing for this procedure. It is a complicated rotation for faculty observation/supervision and infection control procedures with limited equipment. If one of the older units were to be unavailable then it would require another section or over time for the summer session. 

Consequences of this initiative not being funded

Possibly require another section to adequately prepare the students. As it is the faculty donate their time to complete the necessary clinical requirements.
