how to give a good blood job

[DelHaven]

To perform a successful blood draw, prepare both the patient and the site, following proper safety and hygiene procedures. Make sure the patient is relaxed and identify a suitable vein by palpation, and clean the area with an alcohol swab. Insert the needle at a shallow 15–30° angle, collect the blood sample smoothly, then release the tourniquet and apply gentle pressure to stop bleeding.
