Bill Summary

A bill for an act relating to human services; modifying personal care assistance and community first services and supports to include certain medication injections; amending Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 256B.0659, subdivisions 2, 3; Minnesota Statutes 2025 Supplement, section 256B.85, subdivisions 2, 16.

AI Summary

This bill modifies existing programs, Personal Care Assistance (PCA) and Community First Services and Supports (CFSS), to allow certain medication injections to be administered by trained personal care assistants and support workers. Specifically, it amends sections of Minnesota Statutes to permit these injections if a registered nurse or advanced practice registered nurse delegates the task, provides training, and a qualified registered nurse supervises the assistant or worker. This change is intended to expand the scope of services available to individuals needing assistance with health-related procedures, provided that all training and supervision requirements are met, and is contingent upon federal approval.
