Accomplishments
Although I am skilled in most duties within a laboratory, my
strongest skills are in phlebotomy with difficult to draw patients. I am more often than
not able to ease the patient, while collecting the samples needed in one stick with
little to no pain.
I am a loyal and hard worker
with a warm and calming personality. I
feel I work well with both patients and their family, as well as my co-workers. I find it rewarding and enjoy being able to
take a process that causes most patients fear or pain, and make it easy
experience for them.
