Hi...I have a question. Are their any nursing programs that any of you are involved in that allow you to practice needle techniques on each other during in our skills labs? Or do all the programs not allow it anymore?
In canada, it's not allowed but in some countries like philippines, they're still doing that.

In EMT school, we practiced IV, IM, and SQ injections on each other. By the end of my semester, I looked like a drug user! But, in nursing school we aren't allowed to even poke each other with a TOOTHPICK for pain sensation. They are pretty strict about it. I think it's kind of funny, actually! I'm really grateful for the live-patient experience I got in EMT school! I'd hate to start my first IV on a real patient!
