About
This 30-hour “blended” course contains home study, classroom didactic information, skills labs and competency evaluation. Participants will receive a preparation packet and pre-tests to complete prior to the classroom segments. The classroom sections will review the mandatory information required by the board of nursing. The skills labs will allow the participants to practice choosing and preparing fluids, locating veins, preparing IV sites and inserting catheters. Students will also review recognizing complications, as well as evaluating and dressing various types of access devices. Florida requires clinical competence verification by the employing institution following this course. This is accomplished by documentation from a licensed RN in the workplace.
