B. The nurse finds the ventrogluteal site by locating the greater trochanter with the heel of the hand, the anterior iliac spine with the index finger, and the iliac crest with the middle finger. A. The vastus lateralis site is found by locating the middle third of the lateral thigh. C. The anterior aspect of the thigh may be used for subcutaneous injections; it is not how the ventrogluteal site is located. D. The acromion process and axilla may be used to locate the deltoid site. |
