Notice of Delay of the Implementation Date of §§ 3800.187 and 3800.188 Relating to Administration and Medications Administration Training
[30 Pa.B. 3794] The Department of Public Welfare (Department) is announcing its intent to delay the implementation date of §§ 3800.187 and 3800.188 in Chapter 3800 (relating to child residential and day treatment facilities) regarding medications administration training of nonmedical staff persons.
The Department previously mandated the implementation of these requirements effective June 26, 2000. The Department hereby extends the implementation date until July 1, 2001. This extension is necessary to give training providers sufficient opportunity to develop a program that will fully comply with the Statement of Policy as specified in the Office of Children, Youth and Families' Bulletin # 3800-99-01, issued December 31, 1999, § 3800.188a (relating to medications administration training). The extension will also provide time for training providers to effectively implement the approved Medications Administration Training program.
All other aspects of Chapter 3800 remain the same.
