Course Overview
This course is valuable for students interested in gaining knowledge related to intravenous (IV) insertion. Skills gained in this workshop will allow you to describe the basic process of IV insertion, explain possible complications, and simulate the steps of inserting IVs. Within the province of Alberta, the insertion of IVs is a restricted practice. Students in this course will practice the process of IV insertion through simulation. Completion of this course on it's own does not qualify a participant to perform IV insertions in clinical practice.
