Micah is 6 years old and and he doesn’t shed a tear!
We had the best phlebotomist. She was so patient with Micah, did such a great job of explaining every step and made him feel calm and relaxed while she drew his blood. For those who are asking. Micah was gettin his blood drawn to test for celiac disease. Came back negative. His dad is a nurse and so all of our kids have been fascinated with anything medical, and he's done a good job at making our kids comfortable with going to the doctor and helping them understand why its important. Also, I was filming this with permission from the phlebotomist to show his daddy and our family how brave he was. Micah especially wanted to be able to show his older siblings too. If you want a tip for helping your child to be more comfortable with getting a shot or their blood drawn, make sure to explain the WHY behind it. I find that when kids understand why they need to get something done, often times they are more compliant. Good Luck everyone! Be brave like Micah and it will be over before you know it! Stay healthy and safe.

  • You know that kid wanted to cry for a second there, but he was so brave. I love nurses that treat kids like they are important; and I love nurses who teach you what's going on. My dad had a nurse that taught me all about his machines while he was still under after his bypass surgery. She didn't have to do that.

    • SOS SMALLY on the contrary. I'm saying it because kids are treated like animated objects, based on personal experience as a child and parent. The doctors and nurses talk to the parents, they don't explain to the kids what's happening to their own bodies. I get that they don't want to scare the kids, but information is the best remedy of fear (but not too much info...ignorance is also bliss. LOL)

    • @Daniel Sadjadi When is the last time you've seen a physician perform a venous puncture? Phlebotomists risk their lives for every puncture/possible needle stick/HIV/HEP-C. Aside from starting an IV (which MDs NEVER do), access is all needleless. ABGs & central lines are even passed off to PAs. Most EMT/Paramedics in major cities go in to very dangerous situations for minimum wage, wearing body armor (expired/donated from Police Departments). We don't do it for the money to say the least & many are volunteers. Nurses who make $50/hr in the Boston area aren't even allowed to Hoyer patients or slide transfer them from bed to chair. Next time you have to transfer a 675lbs patient from bed to bariatric stretcher, then in to an ambulance, let me know when you blow you back out after stair-chairing them up 3 flights. Tell me how hard you risk you life by pushing a pen.

      @eastcoastemt9392@eastcoastemt93925 жыл бұрын
    • @Daniel Sadjadi No. CNAs make $13/Hr, same as a new EMT. Nurses often pass off treatments on to CNAs during their ADLs. Rarely do you see a nurse OR doctor provide hands-on patient care. When is the lasts time you administered an enema with digital disempactmnent & cleaned up, or a complete head to toe bed bath? Back to basics. Can you support your entire family on $27K/yr?
