Direct support professionals, or DSPs, require special certification to administer most medications and treatments.

Category 2 recertification allows personnel to continue to administer medications through a Gastrostomy or Jejunostomy (G/J) tube if the DSP has been delegated to do so by a nurse.

This is a live, virtual event through Microsoft Teams. A unique link will be provided once registration is completed and will be available on the event page. Participants will need to access the course prior to the beginning of the class via a laptop, computer or large-screened tablet. No cell phones will be permitted to access the course.

We ask that participants have supplies to perform relavent skills checks virtually.

Please contact ONINursing@ohionetworkforinnovation.com with any questions.
