Hi,
I just found out that we as students will not be starting IV's and that this is an advanced skill that will be acquired after I graduate.
I've read other posts were students are starting IV's so I am wondering is it just because my hospital has their own IV team, or is it a "sucky" nursing school?
I kind of feel dissappointed. I had assumed that this would be a very basic Nursing skill I would learn.
Any one care to comment? Is this the norm?
