  • oh ok..they do it right...

  • @notgonnagetus2122 no its not mandatory its voluntary.

  • question for anyone who has been in nursing school presently or recently, is it mandatory to have a fellow classmate start and IV on you? I have bad veins and am a bad stick, and i wouldn't feel okay with someone who isn't quite sure starting an IV on me when i have had my veins blown and forever messed up by professional nurses..

  • she touches the area that she has cleaned with alcohol again so the area is contaminated. she also swings the needle around for way too long, the cap should still be on the needle until right before you go for the vein.

  • If universal precautions are taken the risk of infection is that of dealing with a normal pt

  • @rockinrobin8 Why would you be concerned about HIV and hepatitis? If it's aeseptic, then there's not a risk - just like what happens in real life.

  • It hurts to be strike with an IV needle. This is cool

  • @rockinrobin8 My college still has a session where we get to start a line on one of our fellow students. If you are going into nursing, you WILL end up starting an IV line on someone with either HIV or Hepatitis at some point. The rubber arms in lab will never be the same as a real person's arm. It is safer and easier for students to do the first "real" IV start on a fellow classmate. It builds patient confidence to be able to tell them that yes, you have done an IV start before on someone.

  • I am very surprised that Liberty still allows students to stick faculty or other students in the lab. At my school, we are very concerned about HIV and Hepatitis B. We haven't allowed students to practice on real people in the lab in over 15 years. Students get plenty of simulated practice in lab and real people in the clinical setting, such as hospitals or nursing homes.
