WHY IS MEDICATION MANAGEMENT IMPORTANT?

Many residents in assisted living require support with medication management. This program equips your staff to provide this essential service safely, maintaining compliance with state training regulations.

HCAM’s medication management program is tailored to train staff in Homes for the Aged, Adult Foster Care, and other assisted living settings.

In our Instructor Program, trainers gain skills in adult education, receive a comprehensive training kit, and learn to evaluate staff competencies. Trainers are thoroughly prepared to teach medication management within their own communities.

In our Student Program, we provide medication aides with foundational knowledge to safely administer medications. Ideal for facilities without in-house trainers, this program covers core competencies, and we handle all instruction for your team.
