This patented IV trainer is an economical way for students to explore these techniques in a controlled environment. Each student can have their own — no more precious class time wasted waiting for their turn! The trainer is easily attached to a person’s arm so the student can practice venipuncture techniques on a live subject, including the proper positioning on an actual human arm, without the risks associated with puncturing living tissue. Besides performing actual IV practice, the trainer helps students learn essential patient communication skills and patient interaction.

Lauderdale, Florida, where medical assisting and other allied health vocations are taught. Ellen created the Venatech IV Trainer to provide her students with a more efficient and effective way to learn IV therapy skills. She was so impressed with her students’ results that she patented her idea and looked for ways to make her trainer available to every student learning venipuncture skills. In addition to the diversity of the training device, the development of patient-interaction skills is the most noticeable benefit of using the Venatech IV trainer.
