Phlebotomy
For cancer patients, a needle prick is never just a needle prick. Getting blood drawn can come with fear and anxiety about what the results may show. In a world filled with scans, tests, poking and prodding, blood work is yet another step in the treatment journey and can add to exhaustion. That’s where phlebotomists come in. These individuals work tirelessly to not only draw blood samples as quickly and painlessly as possible, but also to attempt to put a smile on the faces of their patients.
