Struggling with your Phlebotomy Skills?
Aug 27, 2024
Are you struggling with your phlebotomy skills? Do you dread blood draws? Do you feel like they just glazed over this skill in school and then you were just thrown to the wolves with your first job?
Well sadly, you are not alone! All too many healthcare professionals find themselves not receiving the appropriate training in their schools and programs before being “released” into their first roles. They find themselves having to just learn as they go along, developing poor habits, and finding it harder and harder to ask for help.
As a Neonatal Intensive Care RN, I was one of the lucky ones who received exceptional and thorough training when I started my first bedside job. This set me up for long term success in my career and made my job much less stressful.
But I realized, this is all too often not the norm!
I wanted to be able to help other healthcare providers improve their skills by sharing my knowledge and expertise and therefore moved into the education and training world. I found that most healthcare professionals do not need much! They simply need to be given the right information and thorough explanation of how or why certain techniques work. This alongside minor critiques and corrections - I was able to get these professionals comfortable and confident with their skills within 1 day!
I wanted to be able to bring this type of success to a greater scale, and that is why I created my Phlebotomy Skills 101 Course. I gathered all of my knowledge and compiled it into this online course that contains 8 modules and 38 different lessons within those modules. I have included diagrams, troubleshooting guides, and other resources to help healthcare professionals succeed and continue to improve their skills.
It is my goal to help bridge this healthcare skills gap that has only been further exasperated by the COVID pandemic and only made it more challenging for our new healthcare professionals beginning their careers.
