This is what I used to do. I was certified as a phlebotomist by United Blood Services, not an easy task. I was darned good at it.

People usually think of blood being drawn from the vein at the inside of the elbow. Since I had an IV in that vein for gradual dispensing of medication, blood was taken out of veins on the back of my hand about every 4 hours. TALK ABOUT PAINFUL!!!!

It’s good to donate your blood or plasma, if possible to the Red Cross.

I worked in a hospital during my college years, and one day the blood gases man came by my work area. Impulsively, I stuck my arm out and asked him to check my gases. He said, "Okay, let's do," and he started swabbing my wrist with alcohol. He told me he needed arterial blood, and stuck a long needle in my wrist. I started to hyperventilate and almost passed out when he hit the artery and bright red blood came up in the glass syringe. He came back later, ecstatic that he'd caught someone in the moment of hyperventilating.
