What is a MAP Trainer Kit?
The MAP Trainer has the option to use assembled materials for the medication administration skills session. This allows students opportunities to practice administering:
- More than one medication scheduled at the same time for the same individual
- Liquid medication
- PRN medication and corresponding documentation
- Schedule VI medication contained in a bottle
The MAP Trainer can provide each student with a reusable Medication Book, Count Book, and a set of mock medications for 4 characters.
Kit Materials
Medication Books and Count Books
- Print and assemble Medication Books and Count Books using the links here.
- The assembled books are meant to be reusable. After the medication administration practice sessions, the MAP Trainer will:
- replace used medication sheets in each Medication Book.
- review the Count Sheet pages in each Count Book to ensure the number in the "amount left" column matches the amount left in the corresponding blister packs.
- the Count Sheet pages should be replaced and/or corrected as needed.
- If the MAP Trainer has staff practice and document a Shoulder-to-Shoulder Count, they will also replace the Count Signature Sheet as needed.
Mock Medications
- The MAP Trainer will also need complete sets of mock blister-packaged countable “medications.”
- If the MAP Trainer chooses to self-assemble the blister packages, pharmacy labels are here.
- The MAP Trainer should number each set of the blister-packaged medication with the number of the corresponding Count Book.
- To complete the set of mock medications, the MAP Trainer can also obtain medication bottles for mock Schedule VI medication and bottles for the mock liquid medication.
- If the MAP Trainer chooses the optional self-assembled practice materials, the Resource Packet must still be provided to students to continue medication administration practice between the end of training and the MAP Certification Test.
