Vascular Access Services Training

Vascular Access Services Training at Vascular Wellness includes classroom, hands-on, and skills testing, and we believe the best training available. Our orientation and on-boarding program, on-going training and skill set development, usage, and verification, and teamwork across employees all contribute to improving patient outcomes, reducing costs, and strengthening infection control, and in virtually all cases, a better vascular access experience for all stakeholders including clients, the medical team, patients, and families.

A significant part of the Vascular Access Services Training program, Vascular Wellness’ orientation program ensures that all employees learn and implement all best practices. Vascular Wellness does not hire contractors so to enable full control over scheduling and clinical procedures to ensure quality, consistency, and reliability of service. The orientation program requires company certification of employees after completing thorough didactic training (classroom and simulations) and hands-on training in the field (with skilled, scrubbed, preceptors alongside) that involves the employee trainee placing anywhere from 50 to 100 lines per procedure type. Employees receive training on Ultrasound (US) guided PIVs, Midlines, and Peripherally Inserted Central Catheters (PICC), and when proficient, employees undergo similar didactic and hands-on training for the more advanced small bore lines like Internal Jugular lines (IJs) and Femoral lines (Fems), and large bore lines, such as Vas Caths for Dialysis and Quad Lumens. Pediatric didactic and hands-on training is also provided as an advanced skill set as infants and kids are not just “small adults.” Vascular Wellness internally verifies and certifies skill-sets twice a year to ensure implementation and compliance with all best practices and clinical procedures. Employees stay connected daily using a HIPAA compliant platform and consult as needed to help ensure the best vascular access procedure and outcome even in the most challenging cases.

Furthermore, we have taken the best parts of our Vascular Access Services Training program and included them in our education offerings. These education classes can introduce vascular access to employees and staff as well as grow skill sets for those looking for more advanced training. Our education is open to anyone who is interested as we believe in educating all healthcare providers, employees, and related staff.
