1 WYOMING STATE BOARD OF NURSING ADVISORY OPINION INTRAVENOUS THERAPY BY LICENSED PRACTICAL NURSES Advisory Opinion Number: Board Meeting Date: April 28-May 1, 2003 January 7-10, 2008 February 18, 2010 Introduction: Intravenous (IV) therapy encompasses basic and complex skill and a high degree of knowledge, critical judgment, and decision making in order to perform the function competently and safely. Each agency or institution adopts policies and procedures which may or may not include IV therapy as a function of the licensed practical nurse. If the health care facility does include this policy, then the licensed practical nurse (LPN) should receive additional education and training, since this function is not included in the basic curriculum of practical nursing educational programs. A course which provides education and training in IV therapy for licensed practical nurses should not be part of the basic practical nursing education program. IV therapy courses offered after basic practical nursing education has been complete shall be administered by a licensed health care facility or nursing education program in an institution of higher learning. IV therapy for licensed practical nurses includes a basic and advanced curriculum. LPNs who have successfully completed the Wyoming State Board of Nursing LPN IV Basic and/or Advanced Curriculum are eligible to practice IV therapy in Wyoming. IV therapy courses taken in other states are accepted providing that, after review by the Practice and Education Consultant, the course meets or exceeds the curriculum set forth by the Wyoming State Board of Nursing in Advisory Opinion Once approved for certification in Wyoming, the LPN must practice within the scope of an LPN with Basic and/or Advanced IV Therapy training as outlined below.

5 The responsibility for the administration and management of intravenous therapy is included in the accountability for nursing actions by the Registered Professional Nurse (RN). The RN may delegate selected activities associated with the administration and management of intravenous therapy to experienced and qualified LPNs.

In the latter situation, a licensed physician, dentist or professional registered nurse shall be available for consultation in the event circumstances arise that consultation may be necessary. The degree of direction needed shall be determined by evaluation of the patient care situation, and the educational preparation and demonstrated competency of others. d. "Supervision" means the observation, guidance and evaluation of the nursing practice of another by a licensed physician, dentist or registered professional nurse who must be immediately available in the same patient care unit to continually observe, assist, coordinate and evaluate the practice of the licensed practical nurse.
