MLS seniors put their phlebotomy skills to the test yesterday. MLS students start by practicing venipuncture on dummy arms and then proceed to practice on each other. This prepares them for their clinical rotations in the spring where they are required to get 50 successful draws to pass the practicum.

It’s that time of year again!  Our newest MLS students showing off their new phlebotomy skills!!!!
