I myself am IV Certified and I reacived my cert through Neihborcare RX. I had thought about having my job pay for me to take the wound care class in either NJ or PA since those are the closest sites to me

My job doesn't give an added bonus for my Cert. but they want me to throughout the facility to do IV Therapy. How about that one, crazy isn't it

I have seen the other thread about additional cert's but I wanted to know about your personal experiencesh

So how about anyone else?

I am certified in IV therapy for the elderly and central lines, and I received this certification through APS (American Pharmaceutical Services). My workplace sponsored me, which enabled me to attend at no cost to me. Otherwise, the class would have cost about $400.
