Debrief by Stephanee Beggs, MSN, RN is out on July 5th on Amazon 🫶🏼 Go read!

Uncommon ≠ wrong!!! Every ER nurse can agree with me on this one…thumb IV’s ARE a legit backup when access is trash everywhere else! Of course, the thumb is not an ideal spot, BUT sometimes it IS the only form of access we can get for the time being! ➖VEIN: A branch of the cephalic vein runs over the top of the knuckle! We call this a “Hail Mary” IV site…one of three or four sites in the hands where you can always see them or they tend to be in a fixed place even if you can’t see or palpate them! ➖BUT THE THUMB??? Yes, there ARE instances where the thumb may be the chosen access point. AND THESE INSTANCES ARE MORE COMMON THAN YOU THINK! • When other IV sites are damaged (ex: IV drug users, burns, trauma) • Elderly or pediatric patients with trouble finding access elsewhere (reaallyyy secure these ones) • Dehydrated patients • Blood draw • Cardiac arrests when there is no other point of access at that very moment ➖NO-NO’s FOR: • Radiology (ex: CT angiography) • Medications hard on the vein (certain antibiotics, potassium, viscous solutions, etc.) #fyp #foryou #foryoupage #nurse #nursesoftiktok #nurselife #iv #ivtherapy

OUT NOW!! (Link in bio!) 📖👩🏼‍⚕️🚨🏥❤️‍🔥 Today marks five years since I earned those two letters behind my name & and they’ve led me on a journey more meaningful and unexpected than I ever dreamed. Debrief was born from everything I never said out loud. It came from moments I didn’t understand until much later—when I slowed down, looked back, and started putting meaning to the mess. Aka this book is THE “debrief”… the pause often overlooked in healthcare…the reflection that is perhaps the most crucial part of the job. This book is my way of unpacking my experiences as a nurse. Of making sense. Of breathing after holding it all in. Whether you’re reading this from a place of peace or in the thick of figuring it all out, I hope Debrief offers you space to feel, to reflect, and maybe even to heal. Thank you for being here—for listening to this quiet unraveling. Writing it changed me. Maybe reading it will leave something with you, too ❤️‍🩹 #fyp #foryou #nurse #nursesoftiktok #nurselife #BookTok
