Many commercial PICC line trainers lack realism or do not support tasks like flushing IV push medications and drawing blood, making it difficult for nursing students to build confidence while practicing these essential skills.

That's why Hannah Yazigi submitted a low-cost, easily reproducible solution to the NLN's Homegrown Simulation Solutions collection: This Multipurpose PICC Line Trainer supports repeated use, is adaptable to different arm sizes, and provides significantly greater training versatility — and it's built with simple and inexpensive supplies.

You can find this and dozens more Homegrown Solutions online now. Have your own clever and cost-effective simulation teaching tools? Submit them for consideration! The next deadline is July 1.
