Reply With QuoteRyan, what's up with that? Looks like a doll. Did you edit it?
What kind of band aid is ti on the left arm of the injured?
The other thing is we learned not to "sting" the injured near the elbow,because through the movement it could hurt him additional.
We always try to sting the injured at the lower arm on the frontsite.
Ryan, what's up with that? Looks like a doll. Did you edit it?
That is a good point black sheep. I also learned to either try the lower arm or the hand. Only using the elbow when taking blood. Not only can the IV needle give additional discomfort at the elbow but due to the range of movement at the joint it can easily dislodge or puncture through the other side of the vein.Originally Posted by blacksheep
Nah, found it on a website selling these toys whilst googling for the image.
