Medication Technicians

Medication Technicians play a vital role in ensuring the safety and health of residents in senior care communities. Under nurse supervision, they administer medications accurately and on time, prepare and provide medications, monitor and report residents for side effects, maintain detailed records, and collaborate with healthcare professionals to ensure a coordinated care plan.

Medication Technicians serve a variety of facilities including Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNFs), Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRCs), Assisted Living Facilities (ALFs), and Memory Care Units.
