Phlebotomist
Looks like phlebotomists will soon be replaced by robots. I guess we'll have to say goodbye to the human touch in bloodletting.
Phlebotomists are healthcare professionals who specialize in drawing blood from patients for medical testing, transfusions, donations, or research. They use various techniques to collect blood samples, label and transport them to the laboratory, and maintain accurate records of patient information and test results. Phlebotomists must also follow strict safety and infection control protocols to prevent the spread of diseases.
Phlebotomists could leverage ChatGPT to improve patient experience, increase efficiency in blood collection, and provide accurate information on blood tests.
