(2) failure to administer the medication, other than an immunization or vaccination, might result in a significant delay or interruption of a critical phase of drug therapy;
(3) the pharmacist possesses the necessary skill, education, and certification as specified by the board to administer the medication;
(4) within a reasonable time after administering medication, the pharmacist notifies the licensed health care provider responsible for the patient's care that the medication was administered;
(5) the pharmacist may not administer medication to a patient at the patient's residence, except at a licensed nursing home or hospital;
(6) the pharmacist administers an immunization or vaccination under a physician's written protocol and meets the standards established by the board; and
(7) the authority of a pharmacist to administer medication may not be delegated.
(b) This section does not prohibit a pharmacist from preparing or manipulating a biotechnological agent or device.
(c) This section does not prohibit a pharmacist from performing an act delegated by a physician in accordance with Chapter 157. The pharmacist performing a delegated medical act under that chapter is considered to be performing a medical act and not to be engaging in the practice of pharmacy.
