I can't imagine the law insisting that bedridden patients go to stations to receive their medications. Is there a reason you ask, mguissou?

In Texas, in a skilled nursing facility, my MIL and other residents receive their meds in their rooms. The med tech pushes the med cart down the resident halls. I don't know if this applies to all of the residents.
