Blood Draw Toolkit

Caregiver and clinician tool to guide people with IDD through a blood draw procedure

* Published on October 13, 2020

Blood Draw Toolkit is a treatment package involving systematic desensitization, relaxation strategies, a social story, video model, visual supports and both positive and differential reinforcement is used within this toolkit. Caregivers and clinicians alike will be guided through the process of progressively teaching an individual with a developmental disability to both tolerate and engage in a blood draw procedure while remaining calm at each step.

This toolkit can be used with both children and adults with a developmental disability. Factors that might affect the success of this intervention are also outlined.
