Comma vs semicolon after job title
Please tell me which is correct.
Staff, John gave the meds.
Staff; John gave the meds.
Or could both ways be correct? Thank you for your anticipated responses.

'Staff' is not a job title. We commonly say that someone is a staff member or a member of the staff. Don't use a semi-colon.
