- Description
- The National Institutes of Health (NIH), Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) intends to award a purchase order to First Candle/SIDS Alliance, 1314 Bedford Avenue, Suite 210, Baltimore, MD 21208 to Nursing Continuing Education Assessment Project. The NICHD, the National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR) and First Candle/SIDS Alliance developed a continuing education program to reduce the incidence of SIDS by increasing the capacity of nurses to educate families and caregivers about known risk factors that increase the risk of SIDS. In the three years that First Candle conducted the Sudden Infant Death Syndrome: Reducing the Risk Nursing Continuing Education Curriculum Module (CE), First Candle staff developed a general abstract submission form to submit to national and regional nursing and health related conferences. Currently, over 23,000 nurses have completed the CE program and received credit either from the provider-led or online program. First Candle is to conduct an outreach with organizations that influence nursing infant care practices in hospitals and to conduct a follow-up survey to all participants to document if a change in behavior or policy has resulted from the workshops or online CEU completion. The sole source determination is based on that First Candle/SIDS Alliance has been a collaborator of the NICHD-led Safe to Sleep (formerly Back to Sleep) campaign since inception in 1994 and has worked with NICHD through contractual agreements to support educational outreach activities in campaign-related activities and is currently a collaborator for the latest expansion to the Safe to Sleep campaign.

This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals, however; all responses received, before the closing date, of this announcement will be considered by the Government.
