For Ivy Grey Robinson, phlebotomy isn't just a job, it's a calling rooted in her lived experience.
Growing up, Ivy's sister needed four pints of blood after falling through a glass coffee table. Ivy's life has now come full circle, and today she's a phlebotomist with our team in Maine.
"There are people who come in so nervous," Ivy shared. "If I can just make a joke, get them to smile, get them out of their head for a little while, they get through it, and it’s amazing.”
Ivy brings her compassion and quick sense of humor to work every day. Her career is a force for good that is helping save lives, and we couldn't be more grateful for her dedication to our mission.
