          Description

          Course Overview

          This course is designed to deliver high-quality Implanon NXT training in an efficient way.  

          Online modules (1.5 hours) include all key aspects of Implanon NXT theory including videos demonstrating positioning the patient, marking the insertion site, inserting and removing Implanon NXT and a demonstration of the simulation technique. The onsite simulation session (30 minutes) will be run in a small group with an experienced trainer who will observe your technique in real-time and provide individualised feedback.  

          Please select only one session.
          You are only required onsite to attend the 30-minute simulation practice. Once complete you are able to leave.

          Eligibility

          This course is open to doctors, nurse practitioners, registered nurses and midwives.

          Evidence of current national registration through Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency will be required as part of the registration process.

          Outcomes

          Participants will receive a certificate of attendance for Implanon NXT education and simulation. This training meets the required standards for Implanon NXT training in Australia and the certificate can be used as evidence that the required training has been completed. 

          Upon completion of this training, clinicians who have not performed insertion and removal of Implanon NXT or similar procedures on live patients may wish to seek supervision in a clinical environment. Following training, each healthcare professional must exercise their own professional judgment to assess their competence prior to performing any insertion or removal procedure (as with all medical procedures).
