Today’s Nurse Clinicians in Action story is a little different, it’s an Empathy and Compassion Patient Story. We typically feature clinical cases and treatment, but today we want to focus on our holistic patient and family care approach, and how this sets us apart.
This patient’s complex medical issues and difficult IV access condition required vascular access expertise, and she relied on Vascular Wellness numerous times over almost nine years. She and the Vascular Wellness clinical team developed a deep, patient-provider relationship, and when her condition became critical, we were impacted deeply.

Nurse Clinicians in Action Patient Case:
Empathy and Compassion Beyond the Procedure
Since our nurses are salaried W-2 employees rather than paid-per-procedure contractors, they are trained and encouraged to spend all the time necessary to assess patient medical history, coordinate and collaborate with the care team, and talk with the patient and family to answer questions and address any concerns. This is empathy and compassionate care during and beyond the procedure.
Now offering Vascular Access Training
Vascular Access Education and Training by Vascular Wellness is a comprehensive and unique program that empowers nurses and advances healthcare. Our Vascular Access Education and Training courses are taught by practicing, Vascular Access Board Certified (VA-BC) nurse clinician specialists and experts (not just educators) who regularly place vascular access devices in patients like the one in the patient case above, and train or precept nurses. This provides students with an exceptional educational experience.
The courses incorporate best practices, national guidelines, and practical experience across various healthcare settings. Participants receive didactic, simulation, and/or mannequin-based education and training in a classroom setting, and can incorporate live stick precepting and/or competency, as applicable. We also bring our training to you and customize it to your healthcare setting, equipment, and supplies. Hiring Vascular Wellness for your education and training needs is the smart and safe choice.
