Guidelines and recommendations for your state:
In response to the opioid epidemic, individual states have developed and adopted voluntary guidelines or recommendations for the treatment of acute and chronic non-cancer pain. Based on research done on the state where you will practice clinically, include the following:

1. Provide the name of your practicing state’s organization, group or task force that created guidelines or recommendations for pain management therapies and education.

2. Briefly describe an overview of its development and include a web address where this information can be found. If your state does not have guidelines, discuss a federal guideline. (Note: you may need to contact your state’s board of nursing, pharmacy, or medicine if you cannot locate it on your own).

3. Some states have multiple organizations or initiatives (ex: Ohio) in place to combat the opioid epidemic and advocate for safer opioid prescribing. Explore whether your state has other resources, groups or organizations where prescribers can reference best practices for pain management treatment. If applicable, provide a brief overview of the group’s recommendations or initiatives. If your state does not have another state-specific resource, discuss the guidelines published by the American Pain Society OR Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

4. Discuss when the use of opioids is appropriate and for what duration should they be prescribed? Provide a reference for your response. (This question is worth 13 points. 5 points for when opioids are appropriate, 5 points for a safe duration of use, and 3 points for a current edition APA formatted reference.)

2. Discuss the provisions of the law, rule, code, or statute with regard to the following:

1. Conditions or limits on prescribing schedule I-V controlled substances.

2. Requirements (if any) in documentation for treating acute and chronic pain.

1. Name of the state’s program.

2. Website for the state PMDP.

3. Discuss the registration requirements and process.

4. Discuss the standards and procedures for the access and review of database information.

4.
State specific laws on medical devices prescribing for the nurse practitioner:
Research your state laws on advanced practice nurses’ authority to prescribe medical devices.  These are also called Durable Medical Equipment (DME). Based on research done on the state where you will practice clinically, include the following:

2. Discuss the provisions of the law, rule, code, or statute regarding the following:
