Phlebotomists work in a variety of settings, such as hospitals, medical and diagnostic laboratories, blood donor centers, and doctor’s offices. This 48-hour course will prepare participants to safely and effectively perform the skills of blood draws. Participants will learn about legal and ethical implications, quality control measures, relevant anatomy related to sites, contraindications/indications, as well as the cardiovascular system as it relates to arteries and veins. Students learn phlebotomy theory and skills in a flexible, self-paced learning environment. 

The class is delivered in a hybrid format with the option to complete some hours in an online format, but all exams and skills are completed in the classroom setting. Skills practice on mannequins is required in the laboratory setting with an option for clinical experience as applicable. Students are subject to meeting the terms of the clinical site contract as it applies to immunizations and clinical requirements.
