Identification and
Resolution of Conflict of Interest
POLICY
It is the policy of Homestead Schools, Inc. that all planners,
authors, and presenters of continuing nursing education activities shall
complete a Faculty Disclosure Form, identifying financial relationships
that can constitute vested interests/conflict of interest – real or
perceived.
Financial relationships are defined by the ANCC as those
relationships in which the individual benefits by receiving a salary,
royalty, intellectual property rights, consulting fees, honoraria,
ownership interest, or any other financial benefit. ANCC considers
relationships of the person involved in the educational activity to
include financial relationships of family members. ANCC considers any
relationships in any amounts occurring within the past 12 months as
relevant in terms of creating a conflict of interest.
An individual who refuses to disclose financial relationships will
not be used as a planner, author, or presenter of continuing nursing
education activities.
In addition to disclosing the absence or presence of vested interest
to activity participants, Homestead Schools, Inc. will document how any
conflict of interest is resolved. Generally, resolution includes
full disclosure and assurance of an unbiased presentation that does not
include content about specific agents/devices.
Homestead Schools, Inc. is solely responsible for the quality and
content of this CE program and for the selection of its
instructor/author, and receives no outside financial support in the
preparation, presentation or implementation of its CE activities. The
sponsor has no affiliation with companies whose products or services are
mentioned in this course material; they are mentioned only for their
educational and informational value. The sponsor's sole source of
revenue is the tuition paid by participants like you in its CE program.

* Bias is defined as: preferential influence that causes
a distortion of opinion or of facts. Commercial bias may occur when an
educational activity promotes one or more product(s) (drugs, devices,
services, software, hardware etc.) This definition is not all inclusive and
participants may use their own interpretation in deciding if a presentation is
biased.
NOTE: Statements of commercial support and /or conflict
of interest disclosures do not represent bias. Such statements inform the
learner that the provider has implemented a mechanism to identify and resolve
all conflicts of interest prior to delivery of the educational material.
