Nevada Revised Statutes Title 54. Professions, Occupations and Businesses § 635.115. Continuing education for podiatric physician; certification in cardiopulmonary resuscitation; waiver; grounds for nonrenewal of license

1. Every even-numbered year each podiatric physician must, at the time of paying the annual renewal fee, present to the Secretary of the Board satisfactory evidence that during the preceding 2 years the podiatric physician attended at least 50 hours of instruction in courses approved by the Board for purposes of continuing professional education and is currently certified in the techniques of administering cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The Board may waive all or part of the requirement of continuing education in a particular year if the podiatric physician was prevented from that attendance by circumstances beyond his or her control.

2. The Board shall require each podiatric physician to complete at least 2 hours of training in the screening, brief intervention and referral to treatment approach to substance use disorder within 2 years after initial licensure as part of the continuing education required by subsection 1.

3. If a podiatric physician fails to provide proof of his or her continuing education and does not obtain a waiver from the Board, the license must not be renewed.
