The more you practice the better you get. Any of you practice at home or elsewhere? Who's your volunteer? Dad? Mom? Siblings? Boyfriend? Girlfriend?

I remember these days!!!! Love it!!!

Students have practiced on me a number of times over the years.  I always believed that by volunteering my time and veins to help them learn, I was providing them with a service.  Yet, although one supervisor thanked me for my service, I was granted no such courtesy by any student?

Oh yes! Online nursing school had me scrambling to find people willing to sit still and cooperate while I practiced head-to-toe assessments on them and recorded them for my Health Assessment teacher. A few ouches were heard, but they are still here LOL. However, I could not persuade anyone to let me practice caths, NG tubes, or shots, and I've already been told that " You aren't practicing IVs on me!". Ah well...I very much appreciated the hours they let me practice on them.
