MGH IV Hospital Rotation

2027 IV Tech Class Rotation

In order to successfully complete the IV Tech course, students must complete an 8-hour hospital rotation. Mason General Hospital has graciously allowed us to do our rotation in their ER. 

Always remember that the observation period is a privilege, not a right, and a high level of professionalism is required and expected. You are reflecting not only your agency, but the entire Kitsap County EMS. Your professional conduct allows us to continue to rotate at this hospital.

Please look at your syllabus to learn more.

Instructions:

1. Click and sign up for ONE hospital rotation. If you have made arrangements to do your hospital rotation somewhere else, please contact the KCEMS office for approval.
2. Be sure to take your required field/ hospital rotation forms to your observation time.
