There is essential pre-course preparation required for this course, as detailed in the booking process below.
Candidates must read the pre-course workbook, as there will be multiple choice quizzes (MCQs) to check knowledge as part of the blended learning approach to the session. The session will involve an anonymous MCQ, practical demonstration (4stage approach) and then time for candidates to practice and be assessed in simulation.
Once deemed safe in simulation you must then be observed in practice by a member of staff (band 4 and above) who is competent and confident in venepuncture. They will decide if you are competent to perform the procedure in practice.
Although the cost of this course is being funded via CW Training Hub, delegates will need to pay for parking.

If delegates fail to cancel at least 48 hours prior to the course an administration fee will be charged of £25.00.
