Mobile Phlebotomist - Saginaw, MI
About The Position
Sprinter Health brings high-quality care directly into patients’ homes. Mobile Phlebotomists use their clinical expertise to provide preventive care and diagnostic services, with training offered for additional services such as diabetic retina imaging, ECGs, and use of digital stethoscopes. The role involves traveling to patients’ homes, building welcoming connections with a diverse range of patients, and delivering services in a comfortable, patient-centered manner.

A typical day includes preparing the supplies and PPE needed for patient visits, using technology to access the schedule and travel to patients’ homes, gathering relevant information, and providing services such as phlebotomy, specimen collection, diabetic foot screenings, retina exams, and ECGs.
