Fairfield Memorial Hospital is pleased to announce that Kimberly King, MSN, CRNA, NSPM-C has successfully achieved the distinction of certification in Non-Surgical Pain Management (NSPM-C) by the National Board of Certification and Recertification of Nurse Anesthetists.
NSPM is the administration of neural or neuraxial blockade, physiological, pharmacological, and psychological techniques and modalities for the management of acute and chronic pain outside the obstetrical and operating room areas. (This may include the assessment, planning, implementation, and evaluation of multimodal approaches in providing patient care.)
“I strongly believe that every member of our community should be afforded the opportunity to live life to their fullest potential. Helping my patients increase their functionality and decrease their everyday pain is my primary goal.” Stated Kimberly King, MSN, CRNA, NSPM-C
The NSPM-C credential is a voluntary subspecialty certification for nurse anesthetists.
