I've only had 1 session to learn how to draw blood. Didn't have enough arms to get a good shot at learning it. I was able to draw blood from my partner once, even that time, I needed some help.
Anyway, I'm just a little concern with having an anesthesia clerkship first (in MS3). We are expected to start IVs and draw blood.
Has anyone been in my position? I'm not sure how receptive pt would be to having a med student "learn" how to draw blood on them...
Advice? Tips?
