Who can perform cannulation and venepuncture aside from nurses and doctors?
Currently doing a Biomedicine degree and wondering if it is worth taking this course?
Thanks

Phlebotomists do venepunctures, I don't know if they cannulate
Some HCAs, ODPs etc. will also do it after training.

You can literally put yourself on a course, its around £250 to learn venepuncture and cannulation. I went through my company but there was individuals.

Those courses aren’t likely to be all that helpful. You’ll practice on a dummy arm for one day. You only get good with regular practice. And I doubt any nhs trust would accept it and would make you do their in house version if you ever got a job

I worked in a Doctors surgery, that's all I did, a 3 hour course, and was set free. Was NHS, so idk I got a job, and didn't have to do anymore training.

Hospital trusts generally like in house training.
It depends why the OP wants to learn. There isn’t much point just doing the course, as you need practice, and if they’re aiming for hospital work then they might as well save their money as the training wouldn’t count.

GP surgeries are a different ball game. They’re technically owned by their managing partners and contracted out their services.
