After you are done drawing the blood of a patient you put a bandage over the needle insertion point in their arm and let them rest for a few minutes as they are feeling light headed. You leave to get a drink of water and return one minute later to see that they have bled through the first bandage so you replace it with another. This continues to happen for the next few minutes. After replacing the seventh bandage in as many minutes, the blood flow from their arm shows no sign of stopping, but you then realize what is wrong and call an ambulance.
