Description

This state approved course will certify staff to pass meds in smaller group homes (up to level 3) with 5 or less residents. Students are also required to complete 3 clinical medication passes at a licensed facility. Port Resources does not allow non-employees to do clinical med passes in their facilities, so prior to enrollment all students must be employed at a licensed facility or have an agreement with a licensed facility to allow them to do clinical med passes in their facility with a certified staff member.
