SANE Recertification

The Oregon Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE) Certification Commission has established recertification requirements to ensure Oregon Certified SANEs stay current in their practice and connected in their field.  Recertification requires an eligible SANE to complete three sexual assault exams and 15 speculum exams and 25 contact hours of relevant clinical or non-clinical Continuing Education (CE) or activities within 3 years of original certification and every three years thereafter.  CE hours must be specific to SANE practice. Certified SANEs must apply for recertification before their current certification expires. It is recommended that applications be completed and submitted 3 months (and not sooner than 6 months) prior to the expiration date of current certification. Please use the links below to download the instructions and forms necessary to apply for recertification.
