Certificate in Phlebotomy: Theory and Practical

Certificate in Phlebotomy: Theory and Practical is comprehensive 6-month course that equips students with foundational and advanced skills in Phlebotomy through structured theoretical modules and hands-on clinical training.

Phlebotomy is the process of making a puncture in a vein, usually in the arm or hand, with a cannula for the purpose of drawing blood. The procedure itself is known as a venipuncture, which is also used for intravenous therapy. A person who performs a phlebotomy is called a phlebotomist, although most doctors, nurses, and other technicians can also carry out a phlebotomy.

Students are equipped with the skills to perform blood draws, manage specimens, and ensure patient safety. The curriculum covers proper phlebotomy techniques, specimen handling, point-of-care testing, and compassionate patient care.

Emphasis on safety, professionalism, accuracy and patient-centered care in blood collection practices. American Medical Technologists (AMT)
