Reporting
CE Broker is named on the Board page for CE reporting; proof of CE to be sent to the Board; retain documentation for board audit.

CE figures verified on the official NH OPLC Board of Nursing education-and-training page: 30 hours in addition to RN renewal CE, at least 20 specialty-specific, 5 in pharmacology, with 3 of those 5 in opioid prescribing/pain management/substance use disorder for active NH DEA holders. UNCONFIRMED: the renewal deadline — no official OPLC/Board page was located stating the APRN expiration rule; secondary sources report expiration on the last day of the birth month in even-numbered years, so deadlineParity 'even' is recorded from those sources and flagged here. 400 active specialty-practice hours in the preceding 4 years are also required for APRN renewal.
