Yeah, when the lady at the beginning said the patient threw up all over her face, immediately made me want to change my mind as forwards pursing working in the field
it's to give you insight into the reality of the situation, if you can't face a recording of it, how would you be capable mentally of facing it without squirming in real life?
Been a phleb for 15 years. Love what I do and love my job. Earned lot of respect from my peers and my patients. Im always the one they call for the difficult draws (my speciality). Greatest thing bout my job... never have the same day twice!
I swear this intro is so creepy seemed like I was about to watch a scary movie, whoever made this video I'm sorry but this wasn't necessary at all.I felt like the people in the video didn't really like there jobs and sounds really stressing and depressing.
What is with the crazy death music in the beginning? And then the scare tactics right out the gate? Seriously, guys. Phlebotomy isn't easy, it's fast paced, it can be nerve wracking, it can be crazy hours, but it's worth it. I LOVE what I do with a passion! Don't let a video like this stop you from going for this career choice of you want to! Just make damn sure you work hard for this.
Hello Kat, I'm a massage therapist. I can't pay the bills with that alone. So,I'm registering for phlebotomy class. My main concern is job availability. Massage therapy is extremely cut throat where I live. I need a stable career that I can move forward with if I choose to later on. (I thought nursing might be something for me later.) How is the job availability for you? Good? Great? Better than great? :) It's got to be better than massage! It's nice & all,but it is very hard to make it where I live. My class begins Nov 9. I'm doing this. I'm just a lil scared.
I am a phlebotomist in an outpatient clinic. I order samples and draw the blood and give it to the lab through the window. I love my job. It has been great I'm 9am to 6pm Monday to Friday.
I’ve been interested in becoming a phlebotomist and I’ve watched numerous videos and they’ve all been positive and exciting. This one, however, made me want to rethink my career decisions.
It is a great job but it requires a slight technique to find the vein correctly. However it is important to calm the patient and draw the blood well. Most Phebotomists are professional and get the veins properly. People with Adepose tissue are a challenge. Alcohol and gloves are mandatory. Most Lab Technicians understand that many Patients are scared of needles. We deal with it all the time since 2015 and 2016.
Thank you for this video I enrolled in college to a Phlebotomist. This video was very helpful in understanding what is required of a Phlebotomist. I like that you showed both the hospital and private sector. Thanks again!
I recently just finished my program and received my certificate in the mail. I enjoyed my internship at a small clinic. Didn't get to perform on any children or babies unfortunately, which kind of makes me nervous if I soon land a place to work. Overall with what I did experience was great. Didn't think the medical field was for me but now I'd like to go back to school for nursing :)
I like how you’re trained not to make people nervous when drawing blood and you shouldn’t be nervous going in, yet the intro looks like the opening of a horror movie.
i can hardly wait to attend, and complete the Phlebotomy training course that i have signed up for. i am completely motivated by this. u get to help people.. this is a very noble pursuit. indeed.
Excellent video! I am in college on a career path towards becoming an RN and currently seeking to get my foot in the door through way of Phlebotomy courses. I am a bit nervous, personally I am weirdly fascinated with needles and having bloodwork never bothers me as a patient but my nervousness is concern over hurting patients and being able to do my job well enough to ensure they wont be too afraid. I guess that's all with learning the material and practice!
@@davok9805 oh, I ended up not pursuing a career in the medical field. I'm actually in manufacturing and machining now. I might pursue it one day, it depends on if that's where life takes me. It's hard finding solid manufacturing work in the USA since so much is overseas now but who knows what the future holds.
Just in my last week of phlebotomy training. It is such a unique skill. I love the great JUICY veins! I am still hesitant to do difficult veins, especially the drug users.
I work in the ER, and the girl in the video said she is drawing blood during CPR.... the blood will be hemolyzed if drawn at that period. All the doctors I work with understand that the blood should be drawn after chest compressions.
That's one creepy intro. I thought it was a Blood Barron coming near a patient at night, out to steal blood on behalf of some vampire :P Please don't use an intro like that to inspire an interested future phlebotomist.
Since most people here are commenting on the positive aspects of phlebotomy, I'll mention the negative things. First, phlebotomy is paid pretty poorly compared to other jobs in the healthcare field, you have no decision-making power, you're easily replaceable, and there is very little room for advancement. It's also getting harder to find a job because many hospitals are beginning to train their nurses to draw blood instead. The skill set you use is also very narrow compared to other health professions and has very little marketability outside its niche. Because of this there isn't much to learn after the first couple of months of work, and the job gets very repetitive and boring. On top of these things it's a job where no one is ever happy to see you, you have a high chance of being exposed to infectious diseases, you work on your feet all day, and it's bad for your back, knees, and circadian rhythm. In addition, from my personal experience the average education level among phlebotomists is quite low, as is the level of respect they get from professional workers, and many seem to be ignorant and dramatic people. Overall, phlebotomy is a good short-term job for people trying to get into medical, nursing, or graduate schools, but it lives up to its reputation as a stepping-stone job and these things make it a poor career choice.
Very true! I'm working as a phlebotomist while being a full-time student. I made a mistake choosing phlebotomy as I really don't like it at all. Phlebotomists are not very respected in hospital.
That's why I am confused as to why phlebotomy jobs act like this is a serious career path. This should be a job that you get a license for and can pick up work quickly.
Thinking about applying as a Phlebotomist for the American Red Cross. You know what? With training, I could probably do this. Though I'm terrified of accidentally poking too hard. Bad memories of donations that weren't so pleasant. -shudder
It's possible to get hired without experience. I got hired off my internship at a hospital & I'm still here simce Feb 13'. It al depends on your skills & knowledge of the game. When your interview comes, be ready to nail it. If you're unconfident you ain'tgetting hired.
My blood pressure dropped from dehydration and passed out while having blood drawn I can’t imagine the risks these people put themselves in during this times. I was recently hospitalized with non covid related pneumonia but was put insulation on the covid floor tell it was confirmed I was tested twice and both results came back negative thankfully. After the first came back they asked if they can do it again and I said absolutely. I Live with other people and didn’t wAnt to put them at risk. The test isn’t pleasant or easy by any means. They swab way up in your nose with a long cut tip.
Thank You, Soo much for this very real and informative video on the Actualities of this type of job. I was debating between Phlabotomy and Sonography and all the other videos were not giving me the gist on reality. It looks like a very serious job & the great thing is it doesn't take long to be a Plabotomist, but thanks to this creepy but very good insight I know I'll rather go for Sonography/Ultrasound tech. :-), Its not a bad thing at all, It just makes things so clear. #StillGoodConsideration
Holy fricking dang it! This video makes this job sound waaaaaaaay more stressful than it is. There may be stress and a fast pace, but this video is far too dramatic. Ask any real phlebotomist to watch this video just as me and they’ll agree, this is presented in a little overblown way 😄
Am I the ONLY person buggin' about her drawing w/ a butterfly on that GREAT vein.?! I work mornings 4am-1pm & I love my job. Yes it is way underappreciated in the medical field.
@@reecea.419was 10 years ago back when I was in the field & I was at $13.75 if I remember correctly. All really depends on what you get in, I worked in a hospital & it was a cool place to work but HORRIBLE management. But Quest & LabCorp pay better. Idk how much they pay now but I’m sure it’s in the $18 area. I live in south Texas.
I'm scared to learn phlebotomy. But I want a good job and hospital experience and have to learn venous access anyway for my Radiology program (I'm on a waitlist)..I used to faint from seeing blood...lol what'm I doing...
I would have to say that it is possible to get a job as a new grad. You will most likely just need to be willing to take the least popular shifts and positions. I just received a NCPT1 as well as a California State Certification as I was living in that state at the point in which I was attending college. I recently moved to Arizona, and after only twelve days of living here, I was called in for an interview at a hospital and was hired on the spot.
I'm going to school next month for phlebotomy. I'm hoping I'll be able to make a decent living. I'm a CNA now and I can't pay my bills. I sucks when you work a job you really like but have to leave it because of money.
Looks great ! Can't wait to start my CPT 1 training on the 26th of this month. I'm a college student taking my pre- requisites for RN. I really hope this could be a great transformation to also give me the chance to get the experience and also get my foot at the door when it comes to that time when i graduate as an RN. What's your story?
I'm taking the class currently and I'm super excited with everything starting from my instructor ,and the students. We are now doing the capillary collection . This lab part is so easy and soo cool. We need 10 Dermal Punctures and we're on our 6th one. We get to poke and being poked. If you have any questions let me know Shane .
I am going to school in august to become a phlebotomy technician. Is the class learning hard? Is it hard to find the veins and get the needle in correctly? Is the certification test hard?
I have to apply to my phlebotomy course at Saint Paul College in Minnesota and I really hope that I can get accepted this fall and start working in a clinic or hospital
hey girl good luck. but just letting you know minnesota has the lowest average pay for phlebotomy. i know because i use to live in minnesota. just something to consider
Phlebotomy is not bad i been doing it for over 10 years i love doing my job the only problems i have issues with is this disrespectful family membera or combative patients. But thats it
I have just finished a 3 day course in phlebotomy at the maxis healthcare, certificate of competence, certificate of attendance, plus 23 live blood draws from patience in London, experience in vacutainer and monevette system,and butterfly technic just need a chance I am good at this job and know I would make a great phlebotomist" I will also be able to send you my references to and any other information you need I would also be willing to volunteer to show you my skills, as I am very impressed with myself meaning I have never done this before
I wish I had a way to send this video to the rude a$$ lady that drew my blood yesterday at Labcorp, in the pavilion 1 building adjacent to Charleton Methodist Hospital. She was abrupt and put out about me being there.
Can we talk about how they're only showing people with great veins? Barely anyone in inpatient has veins as nice as the ones they're drawing off of. Those are some outpatient veins.
pg. 2 Although I am working part time on the night shift, and would prefer the opposite, because I am a single Mother with an Infant., the up side is that they are paying me more per hour on the night shift, which is typical.
I thought about taking the course a couple tears ago after taking a CNA training. Ha e to say, if this video is suppose to promote your curse I think you should try again....too creepy at first and then not reassuring at all.
Okay, was the first 48 seconds of this video really necessary? Jesus, I thought I was watching some horror clip involving some poor guy being a lab rat for some twisted science experiment. Way to encourage future hopefuls into this profession.

@Anieque Willie,am currently doing a phlebotomy course .am curious to know if you've been able to find a phlebotomist job as yet.
Im in Jamaica and it's hard to get a job as a phlebotomist here......I'm currently working as a teacher
That was one of my concerns going into the course ,I also dropped nursing for the same reason.
shelly b the only way it will work for you is if you're planning to go over seas
@Anieque Willie ,that's what I was saying .thanks .I'll let you know if I manage to find anything after .my training
I am looking for job now.any help
Did u find one
Only thing thay really sucks about phlebotomist jobs is being underpaid
Why did they make the intro look so creepy? I know for a fact that sticking someone does not sound like an audible squelch. -_-
what's with the intro music 🤔 😕 😆
Lmaoo why did the intro give off forensic files 😂
Hopefully they'll help cities like Albany Ga AIDS and HIV cases.
wtf! why would you make this video you can make people not like to do the job
I thought about taking the course a couple tears ago after taking a CNA training. Ha e to say, if this video is suppose to promote your curse I think you should try again....too creepy at first and then not reassuring at all.
This makes me even more scared of getting my blood pulled.
🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸
Are there male phlebotomists?
ABATHlNGAPE what do u do for work now? Just interested if u became a phlebotomists? Appreciate if u hit me back. Thanks in advance
Why does the girl in the beginning look like one of the girls from secret life of an American teenager
Okay, was the first 48 seconds of this video really necessary? Jesus, I thought I was watching some horror clip involving some poor guy being a lab rat for some twisted science experiment. Way to encourage future hopefuls into this profession.
Hellishly over dramatised but that's the States for you. Much more straightforward in the UK.
This video doesn’t represent all the us! This is a separately made video from some asshole
The intro :| woa...
This is ridiculous, I'm a medical lab tech and taking blood is the easiest part of the job 😆
Seems like they’re blowing it way out of proportion.
