PMAT/MAT Training
 

I would like to request a change in the requirement for PMAT vs MAT.  Our preschool administers medication on an emergency basis only (Epi-pens).  The physicians are now adding Benadryl as the first course to the Allergy Action Plan; Epi-pens are to be administered only if the reaction is severe.  In addition, I would like inhaler training to be included in PMAT.  Again, it is used only on an emergency basis.

Thank you for your consideration.
