IV cannulasss

I finally have some positive experience with IV cannulation after few years of practicing.

I still remember my first few ones, they were easy veins but just couldn't get in or at least have to try a few times. Practice really makes things I wont say perfect but at least much better.

I have got a patient telling me my cannulation is less painful than the one done by the nurse (and the nurse couldn't get it in :P).
Another patient told me today "it's a pleasure" even though he ended up not needing the cannula. So I poked him for nothing but he was not upset.
One patient didn't realise I was done with the cannulation.
I managed to cannulate a seizing patient in a MET call.

They were not difficult ones and they have got palpable veins. The really hard ones I still missed or didn't know where to start.

I could now say I am better than when I was in 5th year.

It's great to have some satisfaction from the work and some positive reinforcement too :)
