Course Overview
This highly popular
30-hour course meets the requirements of the
Florida State
Board of
Nursing for certification of
LPNs to administer IV therapy. It also serves as a welcome update for
RNs who have been out of clinical practice for a while and want to improve and enhance their IV skills. Divided into 14 home study hours followed by 16 classroom hours, the course consists of both theory and actual practice sessions. Subjects covered include: fluid and electrolyte balance, blood transfusion therapy, hyperalimentation, IV medication administration (including dosage calculations) and the care and use of central lines. Our emphasis is on quality of care issues, employing scrupulous aseptic procedure to prevent infection and proper insertion technique to minimize patient discomfort. There will be numerous opportunities for hands-on practice, including live sticks when requested. Join the thousands of LPNs and RNs that we have enabled to confidently and safely insert and maintain IVs.
Some of the Objectives Include:
1. Compare and contrast the RN and LPN scope of practice for IV therapy in the state of Florida.
2. Discuss the care and maintenance of three different types of central venous lines.
3. Demonstrate in simulated practice the starting and maintaining of peripheral IVs.
