Bill > H1939

This bill amends existing law to allow registered nurses to delegate the administration or assistance with the administration of certain medications to home health aides, provided the home health aide has completed the required training and the administration is performed under the nurse's supervision. The bill sets out the specific types of medications and administration methods that can be delegated, as well as the documentation and training protocols that home health agencies must establish. The bill also specifies that the nurse delegator and home health aide are accountable for their own actions, and that the nurse delegator has the right to revoke the delegation if they deem it inappropriate.
