Urethral catheterisation training for nurses plus adapted courses

Our qualified educators deliver catheterisation training based on their real-life experiences of administering the procedure to patients. While this course focuses on training for registered nurses, we offer a range of catheterisation and care modules in order to cater for each organisation’s individual requirements, including:

• Urethral catheterisation training
• Suprapubic catheterisation training
• Catheter care training

Whether dealing with a patient with an intermittent, indwelling or suprapubic catheter, their comfort and care is of the upmost priority. This delicate and sensitive procedure must be carried out professionally and carefully to ensure safety and hygiene.

Our catheterisation and catheter care training

We’ll work with you to ensure that the course meets all of your training requirements, so whatever type of catheterisation techniques and catheter care training you need, just let us know and we’ll tailor both the theoretical and practical elements to suit. Delegates will have the opportunity to practice their techniques on anatomically correct manikins, ensuring confidence and competency prior to in-work application. As a general overview for all of our catheterisation and care training, the syllabus includes:

• Catheterisation
• Anatomy and physiology
• Suitable situations
• Equipment
• Preparation
• Procedure - theory, demonstration and practice with manikins
• Potential problems and resolutions
• Post catheterisation care

Duration

Assessment and certification

The course process consists of continual assessment by the course tutor, case studies, practical scenarios, OSCE's and workbook completion. Guardian Angels Training will provide the necessary competency proformas required to ensure safe and evidenced-based clinical practice following completion of our training course, allowing the registered provider to ensure mandatory competency assessments are completed within the workplace by a nominated mentor/supervisor. For more information regarding competency assessments or to request an onsite competency assessment conducted by one of our specialist registered nurse trainers, feel free to get in touch and we’ll be happy to help. Upon successful completion of the course, delegates will receive a certificate valid for 2 years.
