New graduate nurse struggles to draw sufficient blood for glucose testing despite proper lancet technique on fingertip side.

Current lancet devices and standard finger-stick technique do not reliably yield enough blood for new practitioners, and training materials may lack practical tips for improving blood flow (e.g., warming hand, milking finger).
