  • quick question:

    after you insert the needle do you push the medicine quickly? because as far as im concerned, pushing in the med quickly is extremely painful.

  • @bleechedbones Depends...I usually ask my patient what they want me to do. Some folks would rather just have it over faster.

  • @ThePatriotNurse i'm 14 years old and i'm in the university already starting a bachelors degree in nursing sciences! what advice can you give me?

  • @hjestrella Don't bother doing all the reading...you'll drive yourself nuts! :D

  • So in regular nursing practice if you do hit a vessel would you waste the medicine and get new?

  • @mrsasakali Yes. Retract, waste the med. Grab new syringe and needle, draw up new med and administer :)
