Should unlisenced techs be able to place IV catheters
 

I did it for several years to help the Dr's out. I am or was not a LVT.....this is not a hard procedure to do. Trained correctly this can be done easily.  I strongly think techs do not have to be licensed to do this procedure. Extra help is normally a plus.
