Continuing education in nursing; application for recognition of continuing education institutions.
In order to carry out the further training regulated in the AVPfleWoqG (facility management, nursing service management, practical guidance and gerontological psychiatric nursing and care), further training facilities require state recognition.
Description
Further education institutions must apply for state recognition to the Association of Nurses in Bavaria (VdPB).
Subsequent significant changes to the relevant requirements for recognition must be reported immediately. Otherwise, the recognition can be withdrawn.
The state-recognized further education institutions are obligated to report to the competent authority on request about the facts relevant to the decision, to submit required evidence and to cooperate in inspections.
If the VdPB has not decided on an application for state recognition within a period of four months after receipt of the application, including the complete documentation, recognition is deemed to have been granted.
The competent authority for further training in accordance with the AVPfleWoqG is the VdPB, regardless of where in Bavaria the further training institution is based.
