CVAD training

Hi everybody, 

I am responsble for the CVAD education at our community hospital. Recently I was asked to get some ideas to make our upcoming skills day more "fun" . Does anyone have any ideas they can share? I have no problem engaging my learners and making learning enjoyable, using different resources, and always get good/great reviews from the staff nurses so I am a little stumped. One idea she cameup with is a PICC dressing race, between some nurses, and then they get scored.  I personally am not in favour of this. Usually I have a few dressing examples, all with something not quite right, and a proper dressing, then ask the nurses to critique. Usually good for a few laughs. I would really appreciate some help! 

With thanks,
