I am leaving my position as a School Nurse to be home with my kids, but I am strongly considering applying for a weekend night position advertised with a private duty company. They advertise trach and vent experience preferred, but will train. I have no experience with either, but I have some g-button experience.
How much vent/trach training should I expect before taking a case on my own? More specifically, what is the typical amount of training offerred, and what is necessary in your opinion for me to safely take a vent or trach case on my own? I just want to have an idea so I can ask about training during the interview. Thanks!
