At my school in IN we went Aug to Aug. We learned how to start Iv's etc. But my place of employment also requires us to be IV certified through them, they won't even let RN's deal with IV's unless they are certified. IT was only a day long class to be certified. I am allowed to give IV meds and the whole nine yards, except blood (not sure about it, as we don't hang blood in our LTC facility, although was told at our hosp during clinicals that LPN's can hang blood, don't know if true or not) Crazy how things differ from state to state, or facility to facility :uhoh3:
