A Week In My Life: Phlebotomy Clinicals | Makennah Brodie

[@arielle6474]

Giiirrrl I WISH my clinicals were only 20 hours!! Mine was 100 😩 and I honestly didn’t think I was gonna make it through (horrible social anxiety) but I pushed through & I graduate Monday!! 8/17/20. Have you gotten certified yet?

[@MakennahBrodie]

Arielle Brown I’m so proud of you for pushing through it!!! It’s honestly so stressful, I couldn’t imagine 100 hours! Congrats on graduating soon!!🤩 & it’s been so complicated because of COVID so I haven’t taken my state test yet.😭 I’m hoping I get it taken by the end of August.

[@brooklynmicole8404]

I also have a 100 hours I’m not in the program yet since I switched from nursing but I’m not prepared for 9 hours, 4 days a week for 3 weeks

[@Victoria-sp8nh]

I just started my phlebotomy program yesterday and I was (and still am) sooo nervous. I have to do clinicals Monday-Friday 40 hours a week for three weeks and I’m very scared 😭

[@MakennahBrodie]

I remember I was so nervous when I started my program too & I was shocked to see how well I picked up & learned everything! You got this girl!!! I was especially nervous for clinicals but once I got the first day over with I was a lot more confident! Try to remain confident in yourself & trust me you’ll do amazing!💗💗

[@Mainly-boy-outdoors]

So what do you do if you're not able to get the amount of sticks when clinicals end?

[@godsgirl7201]

You seem so excited♥️🙌🏼

[@Anna-rc1px]

Just finished my phlebotomy program & passed with an A. Any study tips for the NHA exam ? I’m excited but nervous for my externship.

[@madelinewoodhall6532]

Hope you did great! I’m thinking of taking a phlebotomy course & found your video 😊 How did the final exam go to get certified? I know you mentioned it was in March!

[@MakennahBrodie]

Madeline Woodhall Hey! I definitely recommend taking one, it was so fun, & also looks good if you wanna go to school to be in the medical field. & I haven’t taken the state test yet due to the virus so I’m still waiting.😕

[@madelinewoodhall6532]

Makennah Brodie Thanks so much for replying!! I’m a lil worried that the anatomy & physiology part is going to be too hard haha but I still want to try! Good luck on your test when you get to take it! You’ll have to give us an update!

[@keshialashay9000]

I'm starting in 7 weeks! Super excited

[@nicolekawa1265]

Good luck!!! I remember being a student, it sucks but everyone has to learn!

[@MakennahBrodie]

Nicole Kawa very true!! It’s hard not to give up, but it’s important to push through.💗 thank you!!🥰

[@adriannadereak8876]

Loved this video. ♥️ I like almost cried when I seen you got your certificate. I hope I can get mine too..I’m going to join the phlebotomist program in Jan...I’m nervous and I hope it works out for me. What were your challenges when you first started?? 🙂

[@MakennahBrodie]

Adrianna Dereak Hi, thank you so much!!! You totally got this!🥰 When I first started I was so nervous about taking people’s blood because it’s the first hands on thing that I have done in the medical field.. It was definitely scary at first but you eventually get the hang of it and gain more confidence! You got this, I wish you the best of luck!💗

[@adriannadereak8876]

[@chy1995]

I passed my test as well however have to do the same amount of venipuncture and 10 capillary as well have you had any lucky finding where to do the clinical? I’m a bit nervous because my program wants me to call around to see if they will let me do my clinical I’m nervous to have to do that

[@milliet4982]

These vlogs should be serious ones for those of us who want to know more about the first day and week in a phlebotomy externship...not random videos of hanging out with friends and gym workouts. This video was truly ridiculous! SMH!

[@MakennahBrodie]

Hi..🥰 If you read the title it says “A week in my life” not just solely based on my phlebotomy clinicals. If you have any questions regarding my first day please feel free to ask. Also remember to be kind.❤️

[@jovanluis1432]

My life is perfect. It consists of phlebotomy, clean fun with friends, and Body building. Video was on point for me ❤️
