This is why intraosseous (IO) access has become a core life-saving skill for EMS professionals.

Understanding Diabetic Foot Ulcer Grading with Realistic Simulation Models
"When I first started my clinical rotations as a nursing student, I vividly remember my first encounter with a patient suffering from a diabetic foot ulcer. I felt a mix of curiosity and apprehension - how do I assess the severity without causing discomfort? How do I ensure that my interventions are both safe and effective? At the time, I had minimal hands-on practice, and observing patients in real life was intimidating. That's when I realized the profound value of simulation-based learning. Using a realistic diabetic foot model not only allowed me to practice safely but also helped me understand the subtle differences between ulcer grades, preparing me to deliver more confident and competent care."
