Jon combines more than a decade of bedside critical care experience with formal art training to turn complex central line concepts into illustrations that actually click. As a working ICU nurse and clinical instructor, as well as a practicing artist, he built Central Command to be the resource he wished he'd had: a clear, accurate reference, made for real nurses under real pressure.

Don't just take our word for it

Thank you! These are really amazing and just from your pictures alone I learned more from central lines. I have been working with central lines for the past 3 years and never knew half of the info you shared, so thank you.

Textbooks Weren't Built for the Bedside

Central line anatomy and CVP waveforms are usually buried in dense, wall-of-text textbooks that were never designed to be understood fast, let alone the night before clinicals.

So you piece it together: a diagram here, a YouTube video there, a garbled explanation from a preceptor mid-shift. Hours lost, confidence still shaky, and the anxiety of not really "getting it" before you're standing at the bedside.

It doesn't have to be that way.

Stop Guessing. Start Understanding Central Lines.
