On the super hard sticks, we always wish we could use the abd veins, they are usually big and very visible.
Our NNP and our transport nurses are the ones we turn to when everyone who is wiling has tried. Though you never know. I had a kid I watched the nurse, one of our transport nurses, try and then the NNP tried 2-3 times before they got one. I had him about 2 days later and got one on the first stick. So you never know.
