Can the Home Health Aide give medication?
Thank you for sharing. This is very important information for me. I’m new to this, but I’d really like to become a home health aide to help people. And I was very interested to find out whether such assistants can prescribe medications to their patients. So, I realized that to do this, you must graduate from medical University, pass exams, and get a license and permission to prescribe medicines. I found out that to achieve this, you need to study for many years. While I only have a few months to study. By the way, I recently found a useful article about how to become a home health aide and I hope that I will succeed.
State laws do not allow for Home Health Aides to administer medications. Home Health Aides can give reminders to a client when it is time to take medication or assist in opening prescription bottles. Caring People has a special medication management program available for clients who need more assistance than the Home Health Aide can provide.
