Hello,
I plan to study Phlebotomy after High School, and I was wondering if anyone here is a phlebotomist. If so do you have any tips on how get ahead before I start classes? Any books I should read? What are the most important concepts I need to know and have before I start?
I apprecaite all that you do.
Update:Please help. I really do want information to help get started with my phlebotomy. I want to have some intelligence on this before I get started.

I am a phlebotomist. I love it! Every state is different on their requirements. I actually went to school yo be a medical assistant and then took the test for phlebotomy test. But you can go to the college and take the course for a lot less. The class books that are required should be self sufficient. Make sure the school you go to does an internship. (most do) Also request for your intern ship to either be a hospital or a laboratory. You will learn more than if you are placed in a doctor's office. Good luck.

Well, I started out by working at the Red Cross. They call the position Donor Specialist & they will train you. From there, try a local hospital & see if they offer any 6 month courses. Good money!
i guess it depends on how far you want to go. look into medical terminology, maybe human anatomy, and hematology. a lot of areas are offering 10 month programs for that.. check it out.
