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.
