Do you really need so many hours?
Perhaps the focus on hours is part of the issue. Competency - I would say - should be our biggest focus. It might take 10 attempts for one trainee to apply a traction splint on a mannequin the first time, but 2 for somebody else...does it really matter either way, as long as they do it right the first time on the test (and on patients)?
