SB 362 West Virginia Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Board of Pharmacy rule relating to immunizations administered by pharmacists, pharmacy interns, and pharmacy technicians

SB 362 authorizes the West Virginia Board of Pharmacy to implement a rule (15 CSR 12) that sets standards for pharmacists, pharmacy interns, and pharmacy technicians administering immunizations. The rule, developed through the state's rule-making process and revised in 2025, outlines specific requirements for vaccine administration, including training and documentation. This bill does not expand or restrict immunization practices but formalizes the existing rule for enforcement. It directly affects pharmacists and pharmacy staff in West Virginia who provide vaccination services.
