Our mission is simple: to put research into practice so that it reaches clinicians, their hands, and ultimately their patients, ensuring they receive what matters to them.   We make high-quality, standardised IV cannulation, venepuncture and phlebotomy training accessible at scale, so every learner receives the same safe, evidence-based approach wherever they are.

One standard. Locally delivered. Consistently safe.

VeinTrain was founded by Sarah Phillips, nurse, educator and published author in venepuncture and IV cannulation practice. Read Sarah's story.

  • Learn quickly.

With our online skills lab and personal simulators, learners can practise repeatedly and build real-world skills faster. This reduces clinical supervision time and can cut live workshop time from 7.5 hours to around 3 hours.

Our approach has been applied across NHS organisations and recognised for innovation and exporting — from winning a showcase at WISH, Qatar and honoured with an invitation to the Royal Garden Party, Buckingham Palace, nominated from the Department of Trade. You can also explore the cost and learning impact in our outcomes data.
