OT's and OTA's Required to get 7 hours of Continuing Education on Pain
-Legislation passed in 2007 requiring OT professionals to have 7-hours of CE related to pain.
-The 7 hours are a one-time accumulation which need to be completed by 2010.
-The other 6 hours can be obtained through in-services, courses or other approved venues.
-This is a requirement for OT's working in all fields, which does include pediatrics and mental health.
OTAO is setting up numerous opportunities in 2008 to attend courses for our members to get this requirement met with little or no cost to you! We will video our courses in 2008 and plan to offer members these videos via online download in 2009!
