Resource Packets:

Each student in the RIA MAP Certification Course needs a Resource Packet. The packet contains printed materials, four labeled medication blister packs filled with dried beans, and two plastic graduated med cups. Students will use these materials in Units 6, for transcription practice and to complete their assignment, and Unit 7 for medication administration practice to complete their pretest. 

Resource packets are made by CDDER/UMass Chan Medical school in partnership with local integrated workforce programs for adults with IDD. Packet materials and assembly costs are provided by DDS, DMH, MassAbility, and DCF. Shipping and handling fees for mailing the packets are collected by CDDER/UMass Chan Medical school.
