by CapeCodMermaid Guide Dec 20, '12So, one of my not so bright nurses didn't measure a PICC line migration properly. I need to re-inservice the whole building. I don't want to stand in front of them and blah blah blah.
What I need is a picture/sketch of an arm on which I can draw PICC lines with different lengths of catheter migration.
I'd like to have the nurses measure and compare to another measurement to make sure they know what to do.
Thanks in advance for your help.
PS. We've already tried sticking our various sized arms in the copier....good for a laugh but not so good for a teaching tool.

Thanks for your suggestion.~*Stargazer*~ likes this.
