Meeting CPA guidelines with Radiometer's new training and competency management programme
It is becoming increasingly necessary for hospitals to document staff training and instrument competency, and Radiometer has established both online and on-site face-to-face training to meet this need.
- (1888PressRelease) September 08, 2011 - Lorenzo De Feo, Product Manager at Radiometer, explained: "Although equipment has become much easier to use, like many other organisations the NHS is required to demonstrate that staff have been suitably trained to use equipment correctly and minimise the risk of pre-analytical sampling errors. Traditionally, training consisted of simply showing a group of users how to operate an instrument. However, in response to recent guidelines, it has become crucial to document that the end-user has received - and successfully completed - suitable training, backed up by continuing professional development and periodic retraining."
Radiometer's CPA-compliant training programme is straightforward and efficient, fitting into your working environment and ensuring competent, confident end-users. Online training is convenient as staff can train at their own pace, in a comfortable environment and at a time that suits them, accessing the competency test from any PC. Successful completion of the initial or refresher training is demonstrated by the award of a certificate, ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements, and each end-user who completes the face-to-face training receives a pocket guide for future reference. User certification status and performance are centrally monitored, and ongoing assessment of staff competencies documented, using Radiometer's competency management system.
