Their primary responsibility is to ensure that residents receive the correct medications at the proper times, according to physician orders. Med Passers may also monitor residents for side effects and report any concerns to licensed nurses. While they play a vital role in patient care, their duties and the types of medications they can administer vary by state regulations and facility policies.
