Staff #1 did not retake the medication administration course but continued to complete annual medication practicums even though she did not complete the 2014 training in it's entirety. | In a home serving eight or fewer individuals, a staff person who has completed and passed the Department's Medications Administration Course is permitted to administer oral, topical and eye and ear drop prescription medications. | A Med Admin Trainer completed training with Staff #1 on 10.27.15 as seen in attachment B1. Other staff were also found to have this issue and completed training as of 11.3.15 as seen in training records which are attachment B2.
