Summary
If you want to learn about blood draws, lab work, panels, plasma, tests, and the profession of a phlebotomist, then check out HowExpert Guide to Phlebotomy.
HowExpert Guide to Phlebotomy is a glimpse into the life of being a phlebotomist in a private clinic, hospital, or plasma plant. It includes an in-depth description of the types of patients we see, the equipment we use, and how to perform blood draws. The most important part of our profession is drawing blood by inflicting the least amount of pain possible for the patient. This means that you need to be educated on the procedures for specific tests such as a heparin quant assay, a PTINR, and lipid panels. If you don’t know these tests, odds are they will need to be redrawn and that the patient will have to undergo an unnecessary procedure. This is a safety problem since every time we puncture the skin of a patient, we risk introducing infection into their bloodstream. This book will also teach you about the order of draw, descriptions of veins, descriptions of patients, and a multitude of different scenarios. If you are beginning a career or are interested in beginning a career in phlebotomy, this book will give you a good foundation of knowledge to build upon with tangible experience.
Check out HowExpert Guide to Phlebotomy to learn about blood draws, lab work, panels, plasma, tests, and the profession of a phlebotomist.
About the author: MacKenna Balsewicz is a 20-year-old mother of one who has spent the last three years working as a phlebotomist at different professional facilities.
