Our RediStik task trainers were built by nurses for nursing education, helping students practice clinical skills through realistic, repeatable, hands-on training before working with patients.

Thank you, nurses, for everything you do.

Following our post last month sharing the news of Foss Miller’s passing, we invite you to read more about his extraordinary life, vision, and legacy.

Foss’s creativity, generosity, and impact on Sawbones and the broader medical education community will continue to be felt for years to come.

Our thoughts remain with Foss’s family, friends, colleagues, and all who knew and loved him.
