IV starts

That's what we practiced today! We use the rubber arms, and I really don't know how much that will be when we get to the real thing. At least we know what the stuff we will be using looks like and how things are SUPPOSED to go. Wonder how many patients I will take care of that have big fat puffy veins like that rubber arm!?!

We used the rubber arms too, and our teachers were like "now your pt.'s veins probably won't be as engorged as the ones on our rubber arm..." :chuckle I figure they're about as realistic as catheterizing those mannequins (esp the female)
