References to facility-specific policies does not mean we are encouraging
people to deviate from the training, but where facilities have practicies
and procedures that are in addition to what is taught, or a facility limits
what a CRMA may do, even though the are taught to do it, they need to follow
their employers' instructions. We did not intend those remarks to mean -
disregard to the standardization.

I have to agree that it has been interesting to hear from other providers on
how to problem solve what is often not so black and white, and to see the
diversity out there. Overall, despite the trend to "standardize" some of
the recent practices, shouldn't we also have to use all of our good
judgement,(and common sense), work within the intent of regulation and
statute, but still remain individual enough to set our program policies and
practices? It would be a shame to loose that option.
Re: the whole PSA or PAS issue, as Ham points out, reference is made on page
43 of the new curriculum and I quote: "However, it is imperative that the
CRMA know and abide by all facility-specific medication administration
documentation policies and procedures". I interpret this to mean that there
is program latitude....
(I also agree that there are probably bigger issues to address...and I, for
one, am looking forward to hearing feedback on the whole new curriculum
when the committee reconvenes)
