Ways to earn more or move on

• Apheresis and donor collection

  Longer, more technical collections at blood centers. A step up in skill and pay.

• Pediatric and neonatal draws

  Tiny veins and frightened children. Few people are good at it and hospitals hunt for them.

• Forensic phlebotomy

  Legal blood draws for law enforcement. Washington State credentials this separately.

• Travel contracts

  Short assignments in understaffed hospitals, at a premium rate with housing.

• Laboratory technician training

  The natural next step. Your draws become someone else's samples, and you go run the tests instead.
