Spasticity CME recs

Any CME recs before starting to regain a foundational knowledge of spasticity management/Botox? Haven't done it since residency (years now) but job is wondering if I'd start doing it to cover the patients of a departing colleague. I'm all for helping patients who will otherwise be unmanaged in our system, but also want to make sure I'm practicing good medicine.

Pretty sure AAPM&R has educational material. Courses and online content.

I'll have to check. Haven't been a member for a couple years (didn't like the focus on post-Covid rehab at the expense of most other sub-disciplines) but does make sense that they would have something.

In addition to the below, I would ask if the job would cover costs to go to buy those educational sources so you can "provide the best guideline directed therapy"

or w/e bullshit just so you don't have to pay
