Nursing School Training: Real-World Practice with Haptic IV Trainers
Nursing School Training: Why is Hands-On Learning Important?
Stanbridge University believes a high-quality education starts with hands-on learning. Therefore, Stanbridge University provides advanced Laerdal Medical Haptic Intravenous (IV) Trainers for interactive Nursing School Training.
Above all, from practice with Haptic IV Trainers, our Associate of Science in Nursing program graduates can confidently perform intravenous techniques.
Nursing School Training: What are Haptic IV Trainers?
Haptic Trainers allow for safe and repetitive IV practice. As a result, students are able to gain and retain practical, real-world nursing skills.
Each Haptic IV Trainer from Laerdal Medical comes with realistic force feedback technology that accurately simulates the sense of touch. Because the self-directed device mimics human skin and veins, students can visualize and feel the skin’s response, pulsation of the heartbeat in the veins, and size of the veins for various situations.
Students practice placing IVs with over a hundred distinct case scenarios on a variety of interactive 3-D arm models. Even more, these unique models vary depending on ethnicity, size, age, and sex. Due to this, students train with a diverse group of simulated patients.
“Virtual IV simulations allow nursing students to practice IV insertion skills in a non-clinical setting so they may respond appropriately when treating real patients in an actual clinical setting,” Alisa Powell at Laerdal Medical said. “Being properly trained prior to practice in a clinical setting is of utmost importance.”
