Collington’s Assisted Living Controlled Dangerous Substances Registration was renewed this week. The Office of Provider Engagement & Regulation (OPER) formerly known as the Office of Controlled Substances Administration (OCSA), enforces the Controlled Dangerous Substance (CDS) Act and ensures the availability of drugs for legitimate medical purposes. CDS permits are issued to practitioners and establishments that administrate, prescribe, dispense, and distribute controlled substances. In order for Collington’s nurses in the Creighton Center to perform their duties, a CDS permit is required. These permits are valid for a period of 3 years. (The Skilled Nursing CDS permit was renewed in September of 2018). These permits are kept under glass in the bulletin boards through the neighborhoods in the Creighton Center.
