A syringe drive provides a safe and effective way of drug administration and can be used to maintain symptom control for palliative care patients who are unable to take oral medication, or who require a constant therapeutic infusion.
This interactive workshop is for registered nurses who have previously been trained but not used a syringe driver recently and would like a refresher.
What will I learn from this 2 hour course?

- General principles when caring for a patient with a syringe pump
- Recognise and understand medications and dose ranges most commonly used in a syringe pump
- Increase confidence in assembling and setting up the T34 correctly, discussing common problems that arise and how to deal with them
