The Catheter Care course is designed to be delivered on-site at a venue chosen by the participants. Upon successful completion of the course, participants will receive a Certificate of Competency from FRT.

This course is specifically mapped to the National Occupational Standard SFHCHS9. The SFHCHS9 standard sets the guidelines and requirements for catheter care in a particular industry or context. By aligning the course with this standard, it ensures that participants receive training that meets industry benchmarks and expectations related to catheter care.

During the 4-hour duration of the course, participants can expect to receive comprehensive instruction and practical training on various aspects of catheter care. The course covers topics such as different types of catheters, catheter insertion and removal procedures, infection prevention and control, catheter maintenance, troubleshooting common issues, and ensuring patient comfort and safety.

The course utilizes a variety of teaching methods, including theoretical presentations, interactive discussions, demonstrations, and hands-on practice. Participants will have the opportunity to develop their skills in catheter care, including proper hygiene practices, catheter securement techniques, monitoring for complications, and providing education and support to patients and their caregivers.

By delivering the course on-site, participants benefit from the convenience of receiving training at a location of their choice. This also allows for potential customization of the course to address specific needs or challenges within the chosen venue, ensuring a more tailored learning experience.
