Overview

The module has been co-developed with the Welsh Blood Service, and in accordance with the All-Wales IABT Policy and the United Kingdom and Ireland Blood Transfusion Network's Framework on Clinical Decision-Making and Authorising Blood Component Transfusion.

The IABT role enables experienced Health Care Professionals (HCPs) to take on the responsibility for the clinical decision to authorise blood component transfusion for patients within a defined scope of clinical practice and competence.

The module is designed to ensure that you develop the required knowledge, skills, clinical decision-making abilities, and accountability to practice safely and effectively as an IABT practitioner.

You will undertake theoretical learning through distance learning, supported by Work-Based Learning (WBL) under the supervision of an experienced Clinical Mentor within your employing NHS organisation.
