New to cancer nursing? Or ready to move beyond “the way I was taught in the ward”?
This engaging evening seminar explores the fundamentals of vascular access in cancer care, grounded in current evidence and real-world practice. Almost every cancer patient will require a vascular access device during their treatment journey—yet many devices fail prematurely due to preventable complications.
This session will unpack the essentials of peripheral intravenous catheters (PIVCs) and central venous access devices (CVADs), with a focus on improving patient outcomes through best practice. Join us as we break down key concepts, challenge outdated practices, and highlight the vital role nurses play in device selection, management, and complication prevention.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand what a DIVA 💃 really is
- Discuss the role of cancer nurses in vascular access management
- Discuss prevention of common CVAD complications.
