Practice Makes Perfect...

So I finally made it to my last semester of nursing school. Two things I am not very comfortable on are blood draws and IV starting. Matt decided to be a good sport and donate his arms for my practice tonight. He allowed my to stick him 8 times and wanted me to keep going, but I think his veins need some time to heal. I thought I did pretty well...just don't ask him what he thinks. I only caused one large bad hematoma in his hand (but I did get the vein). I really appreciate him letting me practice on him. He actually does blood draws at work so he was even able to give me a few pointers.
