The IV Push Practice Guideline and Continuing Education Portfolio (CEP) Program have been updated and are now available.

This updated IV Push Guideline supports safe, competent, and client-centered medication administration by direct intravenous (IV) push, and reinforces expectations within the CLPNS Regulatory Practice Framework. IV push remains a beyond-entry-level competency, requiring appropriate education, training, and ongoing competence.

Members are encouraged to review the updated guideline and ensure their practice aligns with employer policies, Standards of Practice, and Code of Ethics.

The updated CEP program reinforces that continuing education is a mandatory requirement for licensure and supports LPNs in maintaining competence through ongoing learning and self-reflection.

Updates include clearer guidance on CEP activity hour requirements, reporting, and the importance of aligning learning with individual practice.

Members are encouraged to review the updated program to ensure they meet requirements for annual licensure.
