This three day course meets California State requirements for IV Therapy and Blood Withdrawal Certification for LVN's. Areas of IV therapy and blood withdrawal covered thoroughly in this combined class include: methods for performing IV therapy/blood withdrawal, basic IV review, and advanced theory (maintaining PICC lines, central lines, pumps, etc.).

Our IV Therapy Certification course for LVNs, pursuant to the new policy instated by the California BVNPT, is a self contained three day course. There is no home study prior to this course and homework is not required. 

Please be aware that home study is no longer accepted for any IV Therapy Certification course for LVNs, and certification is only recognized when received from a course that adheres to these guidelines.

For more information about this new policy, you can contact the BVNPT at (916) 263-7800, or by email at BVNPT@dca.ca.gov.

Each day of this course provides 12 hours of instruction (not including lunch or breaks) and begins at 7:00am sharp. Any missed hours due to lateness can be made up at the end of class. This course will not end prior to the stated 12 hours of instruction, with no exceptions. Our primary goal is the highest quality of instruction and education to each of our students, and the safety of their future patients.

To ensure students feel comfortable during testing, safety issues and possible complications are covered prior to examination.

Practical testing on fellow students is required on the last day of class. A proxy may be brought in your place if you cannot have a live stick performed on you. LVNs with license numbers will be issued an IV Therapy/Blood Withdrawal Certificate upon successful completion of this course.

LVN students and those whose licenses are pending will be provided with a temporary certificate of completion that may be shown to current or potential employers as proof of course completion.

Upon course registration, your manual can be mailed to the provided shipping address at student's request.
