SUMMARY
With over 17 years of phlebotomy experience I have performed venipuncture on patients in 12 locations including hospitals, patient service centers and clinics. I leverage various techniques to ensure extraction with a 99% success rate (experienced with new-born, elderly, obese, substance abused, and oncology patients). I trained over 30 (colleagues, students and interns) and used multiple phlebotomy software and systems. Additional, I performed forensic urine drug collection, Biometric/EKG/Vital sign screening, and processed/prepare blood specimen for shipment. I always maintain professional behavior and adhere to all procedural and safety guidelines.
