Getting My Blood Drawn Visual

This Getting My Blood Drawn visual opens in new window explains what happens when we have a blood test done.

This visual can help individuals with Down syndrome know what to expect when going for a blood test. Our Resource Library also has an article called Tips for Successful Blood Draws that provides additional suggestions.

Visuals for x-rays, ultrasounds, and other tests/procedures are available in our Visuals for Medical Appointments resource.
