Under current law, an unlicensed person is only authorized to deliver medications to essential workers and their families. This legislation will expand and enhance the ability of the Division of Public Health to respond to public health emergencies requiring the distribution of medications, by expanding the personnel that can deliver medications through the use of unlicensed persons. This will also enable DPH to meet the requirements of the Center for Disease and Control (CDC), Public Health Emergency Preparedness (PHEP) grant and Strategic National Stockpile program, under which all States must be able to provide prophylactic medications such as antibiotics to Delaware’s entire population within a 48 hour timeframe.

An Act To Amend Title 20 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Control Of Health Care Supplies.
