Multiple IV Attempts

So for all those whose protocol says to go to IO...what if you can't get IO either? (or are they not that hard to miss?)
 
any other venous site? If you can't get venous access, you really can't deliver very many meds. We usually attempt multiple IV sites, 2 attempts per person, hope to hell someone will get one, but if you can't successfully place an IO, in any of the sites, I think it would be time to be at the back door, or call med.control.
