Cathie’s Bio
I have 10 years experience for in home health care respite passport waiver and hospice worked some over night Fri to Mon. I got State certified nurse's assistant 1997 worked long-term care then moved out of state 1999 after going to school became a state certified phlebotomist and I've been doing that for 20 years I also do insurance exam physicals which means I do Vital Signs ,blood and urine collection and sometimes EKGs
IF unable to get to Lab for blood collection I'm able if get tubes from doctors with requisition the name of hospital Lab to drop it off at. I do have my own centrifuge therefore I can bring my centrifuge to me to the client's home to spin the blood down and keep it refrigerated until time to go and drop off at the hospital
Pebble fluctuate do to if blood collection needs to be done and that's usually $25 a draw
