Everything is All Right, Thanks to My Itty Bitty Butterfly Bite: A story to help you and your child better understand their pediatric blood collection (English Edition) [Kindle-editie] beoordelingen het boek quotes

As former phlebotomists (medical blood collectors), the creators of this book can understand why patients aren't thrilled to have their blood drawn - the vampire nickname is understandable after all! Having worked primarily with the pediatric poplulation, however, those behind this book feel that it's unacceptable for children to find the most fundamental medical procedure is also the most fearful.Everyday, traumatic and unduly stressful blood collections compromise medical data, sacrifice quality of care, and create a significant and often life-long sense of conflict between health care providers and patients. This book is an effort to improve the pediatric blood collection procedure - to eliminate unnecessary trauma and conflict, to gather more accurate laboratory data, and to improve the overall patient experience for the pediatric population and their families.As stated by Diane Crawford, President of the National Phlebotomy Association, "Step-by-step, this story creatively details the collection process in a way that will give comfort and understanding to your child. I encourage “Everything’s All Right, Thanks to My Itty Bitty Butterfly Bite!” to be read to all children who are having their blood drawn, and I anticipate that doing so will have a great impact on the overall pediatric healthcare experience."
