TEXAS BOARD OF NURSING CHAPTER 213. PRACTICE AND PROCEDURE 22 TAC §213.36, §213.37
March 26, 2024

The Texas Board of Nursing (Board) adopts new 22 Texas Administrative Code §213.36 and §213.37. During the 88th Legislative Session, the Texas Legislature enacted SB 1343 which requires that complaints alleging a standard-of-care violation by an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) be reviewed by an expert reviewer, appointed by the Board, who is an APRN practicing in the same advanced practice role and with the same population focus as the APRN who is the subject of the complaint. The bill further requires that the appointed expert reviewer determine whether the APRN violated the standard-of-care applicable to the circumstances of the allegation, record the expert reviewer’s conclusions in a report, and submit the report to the Board. Before initiating informal proceedings involving the APRN, the Board must provide notice of the proceedings along with a deidentified copy of the expert reviewer’s report.

Education Subscription

The TNMHPO Education Subscription is for agencies who wish to provide on-demand education for the entire staff. This subscription is an add-on to a TNMHPO membership and can’t be purchased separately.

A TNMHPO Membership Plus Education Subscription gives members of the Texas New Mexico Hospice & Palliative Care Organization unlimited access to all archived online education for the entire year.  You can provide training to your current staff and utilize these educational opportunities for new employee orientation.  There are courses for every discipline on your hospice team and continuing education units and proof of attendance for Administrators, Nurses, Social Workers, and LPCs.

The optional education subscription may only be used by staff of the joining hospice agency, not to train partners, affiliates or sister organization staff. If your hospice is part of a home health, then the home health division will need to pay its own dues and education. 

TNMHPO reserves the right to limit users if we feel the system is being misused.

  • Over 100 recorded online training courses for all hospice disciplines
  • Eligible for Continuing Education Units
  • Customized certificates for CEUs
  • Available on-demand, on your schedule

The TNMHPO Education Subscription is 10% of your annual membership dues plus $650.
