12VAC35-106-290 Medication Training
 

Please reconsider the medication training requirement.  Medication Management is a 32 hour course and would be difficult and a burden to obtain within 30 days.  Also, having all staff complete such an in dept and lengthy course would also be a burden to instructors as well as the program.   Staff that are not required to administer medication as part of their position should be exempt from this training or be permitted to take a more condensed version.
