WAC 388-76-10490-Medication disposal-Written policy-Required. The proposed rule supports and protects residents by adding timeframes to existing WAC requirements and adding clarifying language. The proposed rule does this by requiring AFHs to dispose of expired and discontinued medications within a specific timeframe and developing a policy to address the transfer of medications when residents permanently leave the home. Residents are less likely to receive expired or unused medications and those who leave the AFH will receive support to ensure they take their medications with them. |
