Re: CNA's pasing meds: what do you think?new bill?

[Kathy Archibald]

IS THIS FOR ONE PARTICULAR STATE, WHICH?  No, I wouldn't want them passing meds in our NH, I think it is just a gambit to have less licensed staff, save $$, etc.  I think its bad enough some of the things that happen in Assisted Livings with the relaxed rules they have. Just my opinion.

One is being proposed for 2004. SB492/HB189  "Certified Geriatric Specialists" allowing CNA's to complete training  then being able to administer meds and treatment to residents and would also be counted as licensed nurse for purpose of minimum nursing criteria.  Well, what is your opinion on this bill?
