PHLEBOTOMY? Wondering if there is a big need for this in the Rawlings/Cumberland Area? (Frostburg: job openings)

wondering if there is a big need for phlebotomists in the areas of Rawlings, Cumberland or maybe even in the nearby virginia area (near Rawlings). Thanks

You may want to contact the cumberland hospital or maybe a medical place near Frostburg or Lavale.

Umm..by PHLEBOTOMY, do you mean someone who bleeds people? Sorry for my ignorance on the topic, but is this a position employed by hospitals and medical centers, or some sort of alternative techinque like accupuncture or aroma therapy?

Phlebotomist is what they call the person who draws blood

Thanks Sunnydayz, that makes a lot more sense. I was being too literal in my translation.

Anyway, Cumberland is a large medical hub for the area and has many jobs in the health trades. I would look into the Western Maryland Health System, which is the name of the local hospital (currently there are 2 campuses, soon there will be one new one). They have a website that lists job openings. Also there is a Labcorp branch that certainly would employ phlebotomists.
