Excelent ideas. I like the locating a "landmark" on the arm where the vein is.

It really does work! I got the idea from a Phlebotomy KZbin channel. I can’t remember the name. But this was a game changer.

Hi Miss K! I’ve been following you for two months and a half now and you really help me with passing my CCMA with a 410, but I was wondering if you can put out a NHA CPT/phlebotomy study session or live because I will be taking my exam October 20. You provided tons of information and explanation for the medical assistance practice videos. It will really help if you can do the same for phlebotomy.

Awesome!! Congratulations on passing your CCMA 🎉 unfortunately, I do not have access to the CPT study material. The only study material I have access to is CCMA and CMAA and I will begin to start doing those study videos soon when I get the updated materials.

Once you can feel the vein, how to determine the direction of the vein to angle your needle? This is where I often get stuck.

The needle follows the vein as you draw wherever the vein goes you go the same in a 30 degree angle or less with drawing blood you can also study vein locations

Hi, sorry I’m just seeing your comment. This is something that will get better as you gain more experience. But to answer your question, you just have to feel the vein to see which direction it’s going in and that is the direction you will insert your needle. If the vein is slanted to the right, then you’ll go to the right and same thing if it’s slanted to the left. Also, how deep you go is determined by how deep the vein is. The more superficial the vein, the lower your angle. Again, this is something that will get easier the more you do it. But I hope this helped.

My recommendation is the push and wiggle method with your finger as you feel the vein it will kind of give you a bit of an idea as to which direction it’s going

OMGeee, Ms. K! First, thank you so much for this video. I'm Ms. Kaye, too, and I follow your content. I used a 2x2 to "point" to the vein, but it was still challenging for some students. I showed my students this video, and it worked. I really appreciate you. The "landmark" was the thing we didn't know we needed.

Your instructor is probably telling you not to do that after you clean it. But it’s perfectly okay before you clean it. At the same time, I don’t want to teach anyone differently from what they are learning at their school. They may have their reasons.
