If you own a PAS in Texas, and you’re not yet providing RN Delegation as a specialty program, then you could be doing your clients a dis-service, or unknowingly breaking the rules.

Program Description: Do you ever worry that your caregivers could be “crossing the line” when it comes to assistance with self-administration of certain medications? Do your staff really provide “hand-over-hand” assistance with eye drops and inhalers? What about those clients who need their oral medications crushed or put in food? If you own a PAS in Texas, and you’re not yet providing RN Delegation as a specialty program, then you could be doing your clients a dis-service, or unknowingly breaking the rules. Our primary goal in PAS is make the lives of our clients and their families simpler. So, if we “draw the line” at those much-needed tasks that must be delegated, then are we really giving them the best service we can?
