Helfer skin tap injection technique

"1. Place the patient in a seated position and open his right arm to inject into the deltoid muscle.~2. After determining the injection site, use the tips of the dominant hand fingers to hit the skin (about 15 strokes) for about five seconds to soften the muscles.~3. After cleaning the skin with alcohol, remove the syringe cover from the dominant hand. Make a V with the non-dominant hand and hit the skin three times.~4. During the third stroke, prick the syringe into the muscle at 90 degrees angle at the same time.~5. After aspiration, continue to hit the skin with the tips of the non-dominant hand fingers while injecting the drug with the dominant hand at a rate of 1 ml / 10 seconds.~6. After injecting the drug, make the non-dominant hand V-shaped and hit the skin three times, pulling the syringe needle out at the same time during the third stroke"
