Can an ALC document assistance with self-administration of medication?
A. Yes. Although documentation is not required under law, an ALC may document, so long as no decisions or advice are provided that would constitute a health service, as defined in KRS 216B.015. BP. It is recommended that an ALC maintain a document that is dated and initialed by the assigned staff member(s) and/or client when the client receives assistance with self-administration of medication, pursuant to the lease agreement (KRS 194A.713).
