Hello everyone! I am a medical device trainer at Derriford Hospital, Plymouth. My colleague and I are very keen to talk to other Med. device trainers with a view to comparing notes to see if there is anything we can do differently.
Since april 2005 we have been traing R.N.'s in the use of the Graserby MS26, Asena GH and Ivac P2000 as well as dealing with any other related issues that crop up.
We are desparetely tring to make the training as accessible as possible to as many nurses as we can and would welcome any advice. We run training sessions in clinical areas for groups or one to one, have labelled all the pumps with our contact details, put up posters and joined forces with the pain team and palliative care team.
Any other ideas/suggestions would be most welcome. I am in the process of training the senior nurses and am tring to reach the matrons as well.
Thankyou!
