The Certified Medication Technician (CMT) Course at Excellis Incorporated is a comprehensive program designed to equip individuals with the skills and knowledge necessary for proficiently administering medications in various healthcare settings.
The course covers essential topics such as medication administration techniques, proper storage practices, accurate documentation, and effective communication with fellow healthcare professionals. Participants will also gain insights into different types of medications, their physiological effects, and learn to identify and manage common side effects and adverse reactions.
The ultimate goal of the CMT Course is to prepare individuals to serve as Certified Medication Technicians, responsible for administering medications under the supervision of a licensed nurse in long-term care facilities, hospitals, or other healthcare settings. Upon successful completion of the course and passing a certification exam, individuals will be eligible to embark on a fulfilling career in healthcare.
The CMT Course comprises a minimum of 20 classroom hours of instruction, facilitated under the direct supervision of experienced instructors. The curriculum covers a range of areas, including a basic review of body systems and the effects of medications on each system, medical terminology, infection control, and medication classifications. At Excellis Incorporated, we offer the CMT course as a three-day program typically held on Mondays through Wednesdays. Successful completion of a final written examination is required before individuals are issued a certificate of completion and registered with the Maryland Board of Nursing (MBON).

Failure to obtain the Clinical Update before the expiration of the grace period will require the CMT to repeat the 20-hour CMT Training program.
