A med-surg nurse struggles with IV placement, frequently blowing veins and feeling ashamed, leading to reliance on a VAT team and loss of patient trust.

Existing solutions rely on specialized teams or trial-and-error, but the nurse lacks a way to practice or receive real-time guidance to improve IV insertion skills without harming patients.
