This 6-module program prepares California Home Medical Device Retail (HMDR) professionals to meet Exemptee responsibilities with confidence—without altering the law. Every legal excerpt is presented verbatim, then unpacked into practical “what this means” steps, job aids, and self-audits so you can implement requirements the right way, the first time.

What you’ll learn

• Licensure & Inspections: Manufacturer and HMDR licensing, renewals, exemptions, inspections, reporting.

• Controlled Substances (Ops Basics): Definitions, who may prescribe/dispense, receipt/discrepancy controls, key penalties and enhancements that operational policies help prevent.

• Quality Systems (Legend Devices): Perpetual inventory, supplier/purchasing controls, document control, internal audits, and CAPA.

• Drug Storage & Handling: Facility standards, security, temperature/humidity control, quarantine/returns, records, recall readiness.

• Home Medical Devices: Cleaning/repair workflows, used vs. new segregation, field vs. warehouse processing, mattress rules, secured legend-device management.

• Prescription Terminology: Rx parts, common sigs/abbreviations, and safer plain-language equivalents.

Format & assessment

• 6 modules with micro-assessments and a graded quiz per module (pass ≥80%).

• Downloadable SOPs/logs (receiving discrepancy, quarantine/disposition, temp & humidity, exemptee presence, locked vehicle storage, internal audit, CAPA).

Who should enroll

• Exemptees-in-charge, HMDR owners/operators, warehouse leads, field technicians, and compliance managers.

Duration: ~6–7 hours (self-paced).
Certificate: BFLOW Academy Completion (non-regulatory credential).
Requirements: Modern browser; speakers or captions; recommended large display.
Accessibility: High-contrast design, captions, alt text.

Compliance note: All statutory/regulatory text inside the course is verbatim. Guidance translates law into operational steps without changing its meaning.

California Designated Representative Training

Prepare for your California State Board of Pharmacy Designated Representative License

Wholesale operations that distribute dangerous drugs or dangerous devices in California must be supervised by either:

• A registered pharmacist, or

• An individual approved by the California State Board of Pharmacy as a Designated Representative (DR).

These businesses may not operate unless the supervising pharmacist or designated representative is physically present on the licensed premises. To ensure proper control at all times, the Board recommends that each company have more than one qualified individual approved to supervise operations.
