ICU Drips for Beginners

A free mini-course that helps new ICU nurses understand why drips are used, read titration orders, and manage infusions more safely.

Nervous about managing drips as a nurse in the ICU?

Don't worry, I was pretty intimidated at first as well.

 




If you'd like to step on the critical care unit and already know what people are talking about when they throw around terms like, "pressors," "levo," and "Y-site," I've created a free resource just for you.

Introducing: ICU Drips for Beginners, a self-paced free mini course for students and nurses new to critical care that covers the crucial foundational aspects of successful ICU drip management.

With ICU Drips for Beginners, here's what we'll cover:

  • Use the four-question framework to approach any ICU drip
  • Understand why critically ill patients need vasoactive medications
  • Read and follow titration orders safely
  • Prepare, start, and manage continuous infusions
  • Recognize common ICU drips by their clinical purpose
  • Work through a beginner ICU scenario
  • Create a practical reference for the drips used in your unit

And here's what you'll get:

  • A completed ICU drip chart for quick reference
  • A blank drip chart you can customize for your unit
  • The printable Four-Question Drip Framework
  • Follow-up emails to reinforce what you learned
