I’d take it if they allow enough time per draw so patients feel safe—warm pack, three slow breaths together, give arm choice, and a pause if they need it—since mobile days can get rushed. do they share the travel radius and average sticks per day?

3

Looks fine if mobile shifts allow buffer time and parking, and they provide temp-logged coolers with easy ice resupply. I plan routes off lab cutoff times and stability limits, then group stops by clinic hours. That’s how we cover more underserved blocks without risking integrity.

5

Yes, if kid-friendly. I use a Buzzy and keep kids and parents in the loop. Do they support peds training?

8

I’d take it only if they spell out mileage, guaranteed parking, and paid time for setup, cooler swaps, and end-of-day drop-offs. Did a similar split here and lost hours and nearly spoiled samples when ice resupply lagged,anyone else?
