Missing veins is a common part of learning to perform venepuncture, and every student experiences it during training. Sarah Knuckey from Lab Tech Training told us that students start on silicone arms to build basic techniques before advancing to supervised practice on peers. Instructors provide detailed feedback to help students improve and gain confidence. Mistakes are treated as learning opportunities, not failures.
