Question for the Day:

In January, the Division will be convening a Rule 116 workgroup to review updates and changes needed for Administrative Rule 116. The Division will be preparing for the Rule 116 revision by looking at the medication administration procedures in other states to understand other state's processes. Please let us know if there are specific aspects of medication administration that you would like to understand better from other states. Or share specific questions you have about our processes that could be compared to other state's processes. For example, what training or testing or other requirements are there for a direct support professional to administer medications. You can respond directly to me at Allison.Stark@illinois.gov.
