The NVHCA Perry Foundation (501c3) was formed to promote post-acute health care in the State of Nevada. More specifically, the Corporation would like to provide ongoing educational training regarding Medication Aide – Certified. This training would be open to the general public, but would meet the criteria for attendees to obtain continuing education credit. The Corporation would organize the program offerings, but would contract with third parties to choose and schedule the faculty and other aspects of the programs.
Additionally, the Corporation will raise funds in order to provide scholarships to persons attempting to obtain certification as a Medication Aide – Certified (MA-C) in Nevada. Nevada legislators passed a Bill permitting MA-C’s to administer routine medications in Skilled Nursing Facilities.
