I so appreciate your patience and time in answering my questions and being such a great resource for us. This is what I love about vascular access, because there’s so much to learn from so many people who are willing to share their knowledge and you certainly are the topmost.
PICC Excellence was the education I needed and I eagerly jumped into the e-learnings. It was very user-friendly and I was able to use applications that were in each lesson. My hospital realizes the importance of evidence-based practice and standards of practice. PICC Excellence is a platform that any nurse should invest in to further their education. I’m sure glad I did!
