Re: IV therapy training schedules

I am currently doing volunteer work in one of the so called reputable hospitals here in the Philippines, and from what I've gathered, some newly hired nurses, if not most, have not undertaken IVT training yet. So the notion of preference over licensed IV therapist against non-licensed is not really true. Your getting a job offer will really depend on your knowledge and sad but true, how influential your "backer" is. But of course this is only one hospital. Anyone else here have personal knowledge of hospitals who do prefer licensed IV therapists?

Re: IV therapy training schedules

There's a thread on this at the Philippine Nursing Forum found here http://allnurses.com/forums/f235/iv-...ng-328843.html. Thanks.

Re: IV therapy training schedules

I just called ALL The Hospitals under ANSAP (IVT seminar) They're all fully booked until next year. Some Hospitals they're still waiting for the next schedule. Some they only train IN HOUSE staffs. They mostly go by batch so If your going "solo" like me Its really hard to find a slot

Re: IV therapy training schedules

hi! Try to call Medical Center of Muntinlupa, they will have another schedule of IVT training this November.Try also Perpetual Help Medical Center Las Pinas. These two accept non-staff trainee. good luck

Re: IV therapy training schedules

thanks aning! i called them they they got no more slots left PHC will be open by November probabaly i'll just have to wait for it.

Re: IV therapy training schedules

well that is still a positive thought i guess. At least you know there will be another training soon.This month they have three schedules for IVT training, hopefully the same for the month of November.Try to call PHMC everyday until someone gives you a definite date on when you can apply and pay for training, anyway they are very accommodating. And if there is already a set date,do come very very early. I lost my chance once because i thought eight in the morning is the earliest time for me to pay for my slot.I was very wrong, all slots are taken already for the two sheduled training for the month even before 8am.The next time, i came around 6am and eventually secured one.

Thanks for the tip Aning! I do hope after all the trainings i needed I can get a job immediately. God bless!

Re: IV therapy training schedules

a lot of private hospitals do require that their nurse applicants are already IV therapists like medical city, asian hospital, etc.
