Phlebotomy Technicians are integral members of the medical laboratory team whose primary function is the collection of blood samples from patients. Phlebotomy Technicians also facilitate the collection and transportation of other laboratory specimens ( e.g. urine). Very often the patient’s only contact with the medical laboratory is with the Phlebotomy Technician. Many patients, from children and teens to adults, often find needles and the idea of having their blood drawn frightening. It takes a skilled Phlebotomy Technician to put the patient at ease while obtaining all the required specimens.

  • Perform blood collection procedures, follow venipuncture procedures and maintain appropriate log sheets.

  • Perform specimen processing and send out tasks, including accessioning, centrifugation and packaging.  

  • Pick up and deliver blood, other sample types and lab supplies.

  • High school diploma or GED.  

  • Technical proficiency with standard procedures, techniques and common practices.
