This is a blended training process with online pre-requisite education before the workshop and 5 skills modules during the workshop to enhance the achievement of knowledge and simulation leading to successful insertions. Emphasis is placed on needling skills and the “3 Stations of the Needle” throughout the skills exercises. Mastery scoring is used to complete precepted patient insertions and data collection for the first 10 insertions after training providing documentation of successful performance. After completion of the training and precepted insertions, the Mastery Certificate will serve as a testament to the clinician’s unparalleled proficiency in UGPIV therapy. This Mastery Credential underscores best UGPIV practices, needle guidance, superior insertion, and management techniques, along with a profound understanding of infection prevention that all lead to a high level of success.
