IV Cannulation and Administration of Radiopharmaceuticals Level 2

Radiographers and Technologists

Delivered by The Christie PET-CT Academy’s specialist Clinical Skills trainer, this course teaches Radiographers and Technologists to perform IV cannulations and administer radiopharmaceuticals in a safe learning environment.

This course takes a blended learning approach that combines a theory component on our e-learning platform with attending a face-to-face simulation training assessment. You can attend the face-to-face simulation training assessment either in person at The Christie in our state-of-the-art clinical training centre, or virtually.

Please note, if you have no prior experience of cannulating, please book onto an in-person simulation training assessment.

 

Suitable for Radiographers and Technologists.
