Remove Admins from Search Results?

    I have non-admins doing light admin work with the help of user role editors. I would love for them to use this plugin like I can to mimic subscribers but found that my other workers can type in my name and gain admin access which I cannot allow. So, would it be possible to disable switching to admins of less than or not even finding admins in the search results?? Thanks in advance.

    I figured it out. I changed the userswitcher.php file.
    Under the public function search_users( $input ) section, I simply added 'exclude' => array( 1 ) (the admin ID). To add more ID’s, use 'exclude' => array( 1 , 2, 3 ) as an example.

    So, this whole section looks like this:

    	public function search_users( $input ) {
		$term = $input->term;
		$per_page = 20;
		$paged = ! empty( $input->page ) ? (int) $input->page : 1;
		$offset = ( $paged - 1 ) * $per_page;
		$exclude = array( $this->current_switcher_id );
		$q = explode( ' ', $term );

		$user_query = array(
			'suppress_filters' => true,
			'number' => $per_page,
			'offset' => $offset,
			'meta_query' => array(),
			//'paged' => $paged,
			'exclude' => $exclude,
                        'exclude' => array( 1 )
		);
