NIOSH Group 1 Medication Administration

Our chemotherapy trained nursing staff administer all NIOSH Group 1 medications that are IV. Oral medications can be administered by any nurse. We have yearly training for all nursing staff on these medications through computer based learning. Chemo trained nursing staff have more in depth yearly training.
I wanted to see how other institutions were handling administration of NIOSH Group 1 oral medications. I would like to see chemo trained nursing staff administer all NIOSH Group 1 medications.
Thanks -
