Health of carer administering injection to minor

[asameabhair]

Just wondering if there are any documented guidelines to the mental and physical state of non medical carers or parents administering medication by needle?

I don’t understand the question

Are there any guidelines to the physical and mental well-being of carers? For instance a carer suffering with bi-polar or an addiction should not be administering medication to a minor. Obviously medical professionals can't be addicts, suffer extreme mental illness etc. I'm trying to find medical documentation stating who can be a carer.

Cheers

I feel like the language barrier is impacting our ability to understand your point.

I think they are asking if there are any guidelines on what medical conditions would preclude someone from being a caregiver (i.e. a person without formal medical training who assists a person in their activities of daily living including medication administration). I don't know that any such guidelines exist. There are so many variables at play, I have a hard time imagining a way to even make meaningful guidelines.
