Resolve, Regarding The Development Of A Medication Administration Training Program For Maine Youth Camps

LD 1199 directs Maine's Department of Health and Human Services to form a work group - including nursing board representatives, camp health organizations, and camp operators - to develop a training program for unlicensed staff at licensed youth camps. The program will enable non-licensed personnel to safely assist with medication administration for campers with medical conditions, directly affecting youth camps and their staff. The department must submit the finalized training program to the Health and Human Services committee by February 1, 2026, for potential legislative action in the next session. This resolve does not create new requirements but establishes a process to improve medication safety at camps.
