I start class in September 2024 am so excited 💯
Im currently a senior in high school and planning on becoming a phlebotomist. :) this video is helping. And gives me a Head start what to expect!
i began my class in 6 days: would love to have her as my instructor!
Thank you so much 🙏🙏🙏 I’m a student in the field and I’ve learned something from here.
I really want to be a phlebotomist…..in the next few months…..thanks for this lecture
downloaded your videos so I can watch them at night, in the car...the bathroom. wherever I can get a spare moment to help me with my phlebotomy class. a wonderful Egyptian, Dr Mohammed is teaching us but you break it down so wonderfully. Thank you a hundred times over for allowing this to be put on video and sharing your knowledge. sometimes just having someone else say it in a different way greatly helps.
mommy&luke03 Hello and thank you for the kind comments. Glad I could help.
nancy
you are a great instructor. The patience of a saint
I commented that this was a fantastic lecture, however, the volume is extremely low.
MJ- Texas. Wear headsets. You can hear better. I love everything you had to say about the importance of being a professional healthcare Phlebotomist. I am a 20 year pediatric Phlebotomist, ASCP certified. The procedure, the policy, and the ethics involved with patient care is very well put. I believe that we should all be certified. Enough with being "Just a Phlebotomist" because we are more than that. I also believe that pay should match the certification, high level of stress and difficulties that come with it. Thank you Michigan!
+tori tamez Thank you tori, great sentiments for all!
Agree about that pay. But they do that to deter people from getting into the medical field.
OMG It's so refreshing to know that the needles would never drive air into the vein I always wondered as a patient 😁
Maybe it's because I'm a Registered Medical Assistant (RMA), but I almost felt like she was demeaning Phlebotomist a bit. I perform venipunture daily. It's not just RN's that can use lidocaine, pull from the hand, or even a finger. You can become a CPT Certified Phlebotomist Technician, and to work at the hospitals in Michigan u must be a CPT or RMA. At several of the plasma donation centers they do hire people right off the street with absolutely no education at all & semi train them to take a 16 gauge needle, and perform venipunture; I agree this is so DANGEROUS. I have been educated & trained & I've drawn from feet, legs, arms, fingers. hands & I've used Lidocaine; most of the time it was under the direction of an MD. The phlebotomist in the hospitals & at the Labs here in Mi use topical Lidocaine all the time. Is there a written law that states CPT's, or RMA's can not use Lidocaine, or can ONLY draw from the arm?
I 100% saw that too.
She seems like a condescending jerk anyway but yeah I just took my class and she is not correct on quite a few things as well being an overall see you next Tuesday
I agree!
She was very disrespectful towards the profession.
Thanks for posting these videos now I am feeling so more confident about doing the coarse. Continue the great job your doing.
+Latoya Barrett You are most welcome. Best wishes on your educational goals.
nancy
this has been a wonderful class. im unable to find day 1 part 2? infection control?
I am a CNA and I am currently taking a course. Although my instructor is a sweet lady she has quite literally jumped in the middle of stuff for us. She does NOT lecture at all. Most of us in this class have felt as if we are teaching ourselves. This course was started on a state grant at a technology school near my home. It irritates me when I am a hands on kind of person and I only get a book shoved at me. I can't learn like this. I WANT to do the best by patients that come into my care. Most of the time there are grave reasons for having blood drawn for testing and I feel completely lost.
BUT I just want to say I have learned more from you on this video than I have the first 3 weeks of my current instructor.
Dear Amanda;
Thank you, every teacher is different. I am glad that you were able to learn something from my video.
Best Wishes, I think you will be a great phlebotomist.
kindly,
Nancy

On top of that she is wrong...
As a.phlebotomist it is true there are areas that are limited but depending on the policies of the facilities that you work for you can draw from other areas other than Anticubital(AC) or Median Cephalic, Basilic, Cubical ie. Median Bronchial Cephalic Vien, Accesory Cephalic Vien etc. and the Hands: Dorsal Metatcarpal Veins, Dorsal Veneous Arch, Intercapitular Viens if necessary and wrist again depending on policies set forth by facilities. The hospitals have even incorporated sonagraphy equipment to find veins on the underside of the upper part of the arm and elsewhere.
I have been a Phlebotomist in the State of Texas for 28 years I have worked in Pediatrics, Geriatrics, Blood Banks, Hospitals and I currently work for a Nationwide Laboratory. Please make sure you confirm any information you are taught... And btw mos5 of the incorrect sticks and horror stories are about nurse sticks no disrespect but unless you are a Pediatric, Emergency Room or IV Nurse then I do not expect you to know how to stick "well"
Queen B I actually teach Phlebotomy and MA, it's unfortunate but it sounds like ur school needs a new instructor or maybe a different school would be better. ☹☹ I hope u get the education that u deserve, good luck..
Does phlebotomy require high school or GED ?
It helps me a lot after I watched this video. I'm now confident for this coming April in my Phlebotomy course class. Thank you so much.
Hello Sheyne;
While there is still much to learn, I have tried to cover the basics. Best wishes on your course.
kindly,
Nancy
What a great video! Very thorough and informative. Thank you.
How is going your course? I will start in March ..I'm bit crared...
I love her passion
I AM ON ANOTHER GOOGLE ACCOUNT BUT THIS IS GREAT. I AM A CNA AND A MEDICATION TECH I CAN WORK EITHER JOB. PHLEBOTOMY CLASS NEXT
You are a wonderful teacher! Explaining everything with such detail, and making sure that everything needed to be careful of what is legal and not, and all things are very much brought out in a no-nonsense way, making sure students know this is definitely an important business.
Unit Coordinators can transcribe orders but the nurse ( head nurse) will look it over as well as the patient's nurse. No mistakes should be made, as we do have so many people re-checking those orders.
I love your bedside manner and I can tell you are a great RN. My Dad is in full stage Alzheimer. I am very aware of everthing that you are teaching. Students need to know and be mindful of the small things that matter. Thank you for your video. I hope I'm not to mature to attempt to be a Phlebotmist. I am looking to do this part-time and after retirement,
+Tonya Moore Dear Tonya: You are never too old, we have students in our class in their mid 70's, (yes, that's right) and they have jobs waiting for them. The health care field is always in need of good, caring, compassionate people. From what you have related in your message, you must have the patience and compassion of an angel. Best of luck to you in all that you do,
God Bless,
nan
I had to take a exam and get a license for phlebotomist ❤
I'm a Licensed Phlebotomist. So yeah there are Licensed Phlebotomist out there. Im in WV.
Certification is necessary in most states for ever. Strange not in MI until virtually recently. Although I agree that the AC fossa is the main place to go, I've been told by many different phlebotomists to be opened to other veins. I've seen so many different types of people and the AC is not convenient 100% of the time.
Arkansas it’s not required either.
❣️Thank you, wonderful video, very thorough and educating
Thanks for posting this! Im taking a phlebotomy course soon, now I feel like I have somewhat of a head start
You are most welcome. Best Wishes on your phlebotomy class.
kindly,
Nancy
I just started my phlebotomy classes on February 15th, 2021.
@@camilleoutten-lockhart249 How are they going so far?
headknocker2020 the course is exciting and great with a lot of information to remember.😁. I love it. Thanks for asking. Are you a phlebotomist?
@@camilleoutten-lockhart249 No I went to MA school a while back and did phlebotomy there but I don't work in the medical field anymore. Phlebotomy class was always the worst for me because I have really good veins so I was the test dummy for other students, I'd go home every day with puncture marks on both arms looking like a drug addict haha. Good luck with the rest of your courses!
I was in the hospital for two weeks last year and got several blood tests. I heard what you told about drawing blood from the back of the hand. My veins were very difficult to find. I made the proposal to the nurse to take it from the back of my hand. I have to add that I liked her very much and that I trusted her. She did it and drew the blood. The pain was only marginally worse. That happened two times. Sometimes they found a vessel at the traditional site and then it was done there of course.
many times phlebotomist do not take the time to find veins, in the arm and they automatically want to draw from the hand. Thank you for sharing your experience.
In Canada we're licensed and are the BEST at venipuncture. You definitely don't want a nurse trying to do it.
Rule of thumb also, a paitent may have the same DOB and name so it's always best to look at there Social Security number, (I am no way saying im an expert here) I just thought i'd add that as well because i'm seeking to become a Phlebotomest as well but always make sure you look at there social because this happened to my mom one time she had two paitents with the same name and DOB so how else can you identify the paitent? always go by there social as well if you can at least, i know ever facility is different but just figured i'd add in to that in the partial middle of the vid, good vid BTW i learned a lot from this.
Thank you so much, very well put. Best wishes,
thank you for the great advice.
really enjoy this lady and her class
Your attitudes about phlebotomists though is not very helpful, calling us vampires is not helpful, but I understand it is more about your state situation than a general indictment... hopefully. The thing is that a lot of nurses don't talk to us either. There should be more understanding and respect between the professions. Your advice though is very well taken and truly what any professional phlebotomist would teach.
Working as a team is so important in a hospital setting. It would be nice if there were more communication and comeradery amongst all.
Nurses have egos..many of them think they themselves are doctors lol
Well if vampires turn you off, the how about “Blood sucker”
Nurses respect you all but when you come in, don't come in with an angry or un approachable face. You guys are God sent for nurses.
This is how most instructions sound like. She will sound the same way if she is teaching nurses. Please don't take it personal, it is from a different perspective.
This lady is a nurse, she is a great instructor and right on point with her presentation. I like her and I hope that my instructors are just like her when I start next month!!!!
I've searched this now in 2021and ' pandemic still'.. Its really good to learn and hopefully I can apply this in the future.. Beginner student here
I Truly resonate with your teaching style. I also deeply appreciate your classes. I'm starting a Phlebotomy certification in January and these lectures are a great precursor. Thank You.
Thank you kindly,
Best wishes on your course,
Warmest Regards,
nancy
can I do this course online and be certified? I have a Dipola in practical Nursing and City and Guilds. Can I do the course?
+Eulalee Reid I have misspelt Diploma am sorry about that. Thanks.
There is a state exam you can take for Phlebotomy
Now, You need a license! 🤙🏻😎
Very good information, but it is very difficult to ear you, I don’t know if you have a fan on.
Hi, where in Michigan are you teaching?
Is part 2 available?
Never judge a book by its cover. She's a good Phlebotomy Instructor.
Have you attended this class
I just wanted to scream MLTs!! Med lab techs are licensed professionals!!!
Not in all states but yes
Video is 8 years old
Cool respect very helpful
Enjoyed the class. My question is what is the length of the course for phlelobotomy program. I hold an AAS as a Medical Assistant
Judith McLeish hello Judith; our phlebotomy class is 10 weeks.thank you for writing in
Judith McLeish As a Medical Assistant were u not educated in phlebotomy? I am an Instructor & Phlebotomy is part if the education in our class. We prepare you not just for certification for your RMA/CMA but your CPT as well..
Hi Video information too good but voice quality was very poor can not understand properly please if can do please upload again with good video voice quality regards
Fantastic Teacher and lecture!
Hi N,
Thanks for the input.
all the best
nan
I love this woman
I am about to start a medical assistant class on the 26th aug. in Washington dc and we have a component with phlebotomy. My question is when you say "Order of Draw" is that meant order of draw by test to tube or by color of tube?
Color. But the color is there to differentiate the additives and test that are drawn in them. So as not to contaminate samples
I teach both color and additive
Is day 1 lecture - part 2 available? Great video. Wonderful instructor.
myopinon74 thank you for the compliment,I will look into part two to see why it's not uploaded.kindly,Nancy Kimmel
I can not hear you. No volume
it's licensed in Kansas.
+geecoffee1 Hi, we are licensed in the state of MI, however we offer national exams through the NCCT and the AMCA which yo can take in your state.
thanks for writing into us.
nan
I wish everything was titled in order
Dear Harley;
I agree, "working on that"
thanks
:)
Do phlebotomists need all vaccines?
That’s good class but it has a bad audio
it's excellent. it would be even better if there was sound.
Bryan Calhoun Hi Bryan;
Yes, you are right, our sound man could have done a better job, absolutely,
thanks,
nan
Lol seriously dude I concur
There is no sound
.. RE-EDIT THIS VIDEO .. AND .. BOOST--THE--VOLUME .. PLEASE ..
She seems warm and inviting lol 😳
@@dyeace: Lmao.
I like this lady.
funny because I always hear nurses can't draw their way out of a paper bag..lady is total disrespectful to the phleb profession..why is she teaching a phleb course if she is so skeptical or scared of phlebs..doesn't make any damn sense.
She's very good at driving home her point. You seriously don't want to deal with an EMS instructor if you think this is ANYTHING other than "kind sweet and gentle".
Lol
I want to take this class, but I want to know this place is legit. Do you offer a certification once this class is done. Are you guys accredited?
Hi BeautyBae Cupcake;
Well, are a licensed proprietary school in the state of MI for over 9 years and are accredited through the following; NHA, AMCA, NCCT
:)
Did I hear her correctly...sounded like she said CNA's are licensed. Never heard of that anywhere before. They're certified, not licensed. Theyre certainly not licensed here in NY. **nvm just turned up the volume and replayed, she did say certified.
Change here i come...
This is a great instructor, though she errored in one point- its best to have the patient information on the tube BEFORE The draw BUT at the bedside because this offers an extra opportunity to make sure you have the right identification and it makes sure there's no chance of mislabeling.
@King Me Thats why the lab requisition form typically has extra labels in most places.
Too quiet for my phone. I'll play on my laptop later.
I wish u were my instructor.. ☹️
Why can't I hear anything?
lauereyes take those ear plugs out that usually helps.
Good performance, but the room is very annoying and dark i can hear someone phone ringing.
❤️🙏🏽❤️

to become a phlebotomy do one need to become a medical assitant or nurse first?
Actually it is within a nurse's scope of practice to draw blood. This includes blood draw as a veinipuncture and from central lines.
Nick S absolutely, but most of the time the phlebotomist works in the lab or gets an order from the Doctor to get blood and get it to the lab and properly categorize it and process it for his/her requested tests. R.N's are generally very busy and they aren't in the lab. hence the need for a phlebotomy technician who has dedicated skills to draw and then list and categorize blood that has been drawn from patients. then file and process it in the lab for the specifics that have been requested by doctors.
R.N.s are way too busy to spend time with that. unless they work in the lab
No, not in Texas.
No... not in Florida
Thanks
+Mia Persad Welcome
False ! School in AZ teachs that you can draw from hand forearm and "arm bend". Idk what phlebotomist rubbed her wrong smh she doesn't like us it's clear
Michigan?
She said Michigan
They see in Michigan. Laws are different.
My right ear feels...empty... :(
Can barely hear!
Wow nice how she’s talking down on phlebotomist. Why are you even teaching the class ?
This lady doesn’t know that hand draws can be done safely and easily with a 23 gauge or 25 gauge butterfly. She hasn’t done morning phleb draws on difficult sticks. She doesn’t understand the lab considerations. Nurses shouldn’t teach this - should be a phleb, MLT/MLS, or pathologist.
I cant hear anything smh
Gucci
Can she be my teacher 😭😭😭
recoring is really horrible no light and no volume of the instructor
+Al Boo I apologize, we are working on getting better videos.
This woman has such a distaste for phlebotomists she shouldn't even be teaching the class.
The older teachers teach this way with examples so students won't forget.
Her lecture is not very good and she talk too fast and can barely hear her
There is no sound
