Continuing Education Credits:
Nurses: According to the Texas Nurse Practice Act for Nursing Continuing Education,
Nurses my claim 12 type II contact hours (1.2 credits for each 60 minutes). A Type II program is one which meets the criteria in the
Board's rules, but has not been approved by one of the credentialing organizations. A Type II may
be a program approved for another health care professional, such as a physician or pharmacist, or a
program offered by one's employer or other organization. The program, however, must address
nursing practice or the provision of health care, include nurses in the target audience and meet the
definition of nursing continuing education. Other activities accepted for Type II credit include
program development and presentation, certification in a nursing specialty and authorship.
The total number of contact hours for nurses will be awarded by the Texas Society for Respiratory Care and
the Department of Respiratory Care at the end of the series based upon the sign in attendance roster.
