Don't Get Waitlisted!
Whether you're in a hospital or office-based practice, chronic pain patients are everywhere—and YOU are absorbing the burden of their care.
PAINWeekEnd: Pain Management for the Main Street Practitioner has been created to streamline the clutter of information on assessment, evolving guidelines and risk management. Join us for a day of clinical and practice management CE/CME designed expressly for frontline clinicians.
Where?
Hyatt Regency Lexington

Nurse Practitioners in the state must complete 5 hours of continuing education in pharmacology each year, and APRNs with a CAPA-CS are required to earn 1.5 approved CE contact hours on the use of KASPER, pain management, or addiction disorders.
