Hello! I am Jennifer Vargas, founder and director of Vital Phlebotomy Institute. Established in 2021 with a dedicated mission to serve and uplift the community of Fredericksburg and its neighboring regions, bringing a wealth of knowledge and experience to the field of healthcare education. I hold a Bachelor of Science with a major in Leadership from Old Dominion University, which has provided me with a strong foundation to lead and inspire in the healthcare field. 

 

My commitment to healthcare is multifaceted; I am not only a business owner but also a certified instructor, phlebotomist, medical assistant, EKG technician, and billing and coding specialist with ten years of experience. These certifications enable me to bring a comprehensive perspective to my teaching and management. 

 

Furthering my dedication to healthcare, I am advancing my qualifications by pursuing an RN license at Chamberlain University. This endeavor aligns with my ambition to expand my business and enhance my education repertoire. 

 

Education is more than a profession for me- it is my passion. There is a pressing need for more healthcare professionals in the medical field, and I am committed to addressing this gap through high-quality training and education. I aim to contribute to our community by providing proficient professionals who are well-equipped to excel in the medical field. The core belief is that by offering accessible and affordable programs, anyone wanting to enter the medical field can do so. 

 

I find great fulfillment in what I do, especially in helping individuals realize their potential. It is my aspiration to cultivate skilled professionals and uplift and empower them to make meaningful contributions to healthcare and our community.
