CRMA is taught by a licensed RN.

You must attend all five days to complete this course.

Days 1-4 are 100% IN PERSON There is an expectation of the student to practice vital signs (Temperature, Blood Pressure, Pulse, Respirations) on their own time. OHI does not provide the materials to practice these skills. Day 5 – IN PERSON – The student will be required to travel to 203 Maine Ave in Bangor Maine to perform a faux med pass and a set of vital signs with the RN Instructor.

An RN (through your employer) is required to observe them completing their 3 in-person med passes to obtain a 40-hour CRMA certificate.  Each student is responsible for checking with their employer to ensure this is done.
