Program Description: This training program addresses the unique therapeutic paths that children with
chronic or progressive conditions may demonstrate and will offer a lens through which we can view and analyze along the way. Context and
perspective are key when selecting assessment tools and interpreting findings, as well as when making decisions around medical necessity,
dosage, and interventions. Routines and priorities unique to the individual child/family are particularly important for children with chronic
or progressive conditions, given their complexity, and best practice for gathering and utilizing this vital information is addressed.
Additionally, perspective and language around goal development and collaboration with caregivers is explored. There are times in the
life of a child with a chronic or progressive condition where strategic use of the Maintenance Level / Prevent Deterioration frequency/dosage
level (as outlined in the TMPPM), may be most appropriate. This training program also describes the benefits of this dosage level, and
how it can be utilized most effectively.

Reporting of Perceived Bias
Bias, as defined by the American Nurses Credentialing Center’s Commission on Accreditation (ANCC COA/LSNA) is the “tendency or inclination to cause partiality, favoritism, or influence.”
Commercial bias may occur when a CNE activity promotes one or more product(s) (drugs, devices, services, software, hardware, etc.). This definition is not all inclusive and participants may use
their own interpretation in deciding if a presentation is biased. The ANCC COA is interested in the opinions and perceptions of participants at approved CNE activities, especially in the presence
of actual or perceived bias in continuing education. Therefore, ANCC invites participants to access their “ANCC Accreditation Feedback Line” to report any noted bias or conflict of interest in the
education activity. The toll free number is 1(866) 262-9730.
