| What is "Blood Suckers?" | ||||
| Blood Suckers is the student phlebotomy group at the UIC College of Medicine. | ||||
| What is phlebotomy? | ||||
| Phlebotomy is the practice of drawing blood. At Blood Suckers, we draw blood (and run tests on it!) so that doctors can give their patients a more accurate diagnosis. | ||||
| What is the mission of Blood Suckers? | ||||
|
||||
| To provide phlebotomy training and practice opportunities for UIC medical students. Our aim is to help students develop these skills so that they feel more comfortable performing phlebotomy in their clinical years. At the same, Blood Suckers provides students with an opportunity to volunteer in the community -- by providing staffing at Student Run Free Clinic (SRFC) and CommunityHealth. | ||||
