We practiced nearly all our skills on each other (kept our clothes on and "pretended" for complete bed baths, and had a "dummy" for caths!) All routes of injection, starting IVs, ROM exercises, putting on and cutting off casts (not that I've ever done that in my practice all these years ...), strapping each other into Stryker frames and flipping each other, many things ...
It's surprising to know that we all have different experiences on this one. If anyone wanted to know, I did well on our practical. The girl I did subcutaneous adminsitration is still alive and reports to class. We just used distilled H20 but it's still painful. Personally, I'm glad we did it. I don't think we'll do cath on each other tho (whew!)
Whew!this is a nifty site esp. for a nursing stude like me,anyways,im having the same return demo tom. on parenteral administration(ID,SQ,IM injection)problem is i got sick with the flu last week and was not able to watch the video presentation on how to actually do it.Can you guys help me find a site that shows actual footage on how these procedures are done?Thnx in advance!

We're about to do a return demo (RD) this coming Monday. it's to demonstrate IM, intradermal and subcutaneous injections. We're ask to pick a partner in class and do it to one another.
Just curious if any of you had to go through the same practical demonstration
