Lifelike vinyl skin that rolls as you palpate to allow location of the vein
Synthetic rubber tubing for the veins carefully selected to provide a lifelike simulation of vein size
The feeling of puncture and palpation for practicing venipuncture
A soft foam is used to simulate the deltoid muscle and allows the student to "get the feel" of administering intramuscular injections to children
