This 8-hour IV therapy course teaches fundamentals of IV therapy in clinics, medical office and outpatient treatment centers. Up on completion of this IV certificate program, attendees learn to insert a peripheral IV catheter, prepare and initiate IV fluids, monitor the patient during the infusion, identify potential complications, discontinue and document the procedure. Attendees obtain a certificate of completion. Competency validation could be done at the facility according to the organization’s policy and procedures. This hands-on training is geared to licensed professionals and unlicensed assistive personnel.
State Medical Boards regulate delegation of IV therapy tasks from physicians to medical assistants (MAs) and other unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP). Regulations vary greatly among states, and very few identify any form of scope of practice for IV therapy by MAs and UAPs.
Depending on the state regulation, physicians and other licensed independent practitioners (LIPs) may delegate infusion related tasks to UAPs. Though, prior to delegation, the delegating professional must confirm the UAP has successfully completed an IV therapy training program (sometimes referred as IV certification program) and is competent to perform delegated tasks. Ongoing supervision and accountability are essential parts of the delegation.
Infusion therapy standards of practice recommend visualization technology for the location and identification of blood vessels.
By attending this hands-on training program, attendees learn to visualize deep and difficult veins, determine the depth and size of veins, administer local anesthesia, and successfully insert peripheral catheters in one attempt.
This is a vital skill for clinicians working in the acute care settings, specifically in the ER, ICU, radiology, and pediatric units.
PLEASE NOTE: Attendees are required to have excellent peripheral IV skills before attending this class. If needed, please attend the IV refresher and skill enhancement program prior to attending this program.

Nursing scope of practice vary state by state. Certain states have specific guidelines for IV therapy training for LPNs often referred as IV certification for LPNs. Almost all states allow LPNs with education and training to perform certain intravenous therapy procedures as delegated by a registered nurse, physician or licensed independent practitioner.
This 2-day IV certification course for LPNs teaches insertion use and maintenance of short peripheral IV catheters and administration of fluids and medications through a peripheral IV catheter.
Please note: Multiple states allow LPNs with documented education and training to infuse through central vascular catheters (CVCs). *LPNs who works in jurisdictions that allow them to infuse through a central vascular catheter/central line may attend the 20-hour peripheral and central vascular infusion therapy course to learn use, care and management of central vascular access devices.
IV therapy education and training programs are often referred as IV certification program. LPNs shall follow the employer’s policy and procedures if a state board of nursing does not specify if an LPN can infuse through CVCs. Documented education is core focus.
