The Center for Phlebotomy Education

01/14/2024

Hello all,

I'm currently working on a project where we are building documents specifically for those who are interested in starting up their own school or program.

As we get closer to actually marketing these products we thought that some insight from industry experts, like you all, could be really helpful. We are curious to see what you guys think about this, what kind of prices you think might be fair, or what types of documents might be most helpful?

If you have a second, please fill out this super short survey. Those who complete the survey are entered to win a free Lab Draw Answer Book.

We would sure appreciate your help with this! Link is below.

Hello Phlebotomy Friends!
If you could have anything you wanted in a mobile phlebotomy cart, what would it be? After seeing a post about a phlebotomy cart a couple of days ago I decided to do some research and see what options are available for mobile phleb carts - surprise, there are very few options besides cosmetic carts.

Maybe the Center for Phlebotomy Education could help fill this gap with an affordable custom phlebotomy cart designed to be taken on the road and into peoples homes while protecting sample integrity and being easy to carry.

Tell me how you would like your dream cart to function! I included a picture of a cart that apparently was once available on the market, but no longer.

Some things I have already heard:
-Wheels and a handle
-Pullout drawers like the one in the picture
-Needs to be lockable
-A foldout table or shelf to rest supplies
-A waterproof bottom drawer where icepacks can be placed to keep samples cold (or warm).

Tell me what you want, and maybe we can make the most amazing cart ever.

Day five of Phlebotomists Recognition Week.

It's the last day of an amazing week dedicated to my favorite group of people. Phlebotomists.

Everything that I have posted this week has been a tribute to their work, and I have only scraped the surface of all the amazing qualities and talents of phlebotomists.

Thank you all for everything you do. I know it can seem like no one appreciates your work, but we do, and we know how important you are. Please keep up the good work, and please always be kind and support one another. Phlebotomists need all the love they can get.

Phlebotomists are the BEST.

Day 4 of Phlebotomists Recognition Week.

Phlebotomists have a higher risk of experiencing an accidental blood exposure during their career. Most phlebotomists are fully educated on the increased risks as a student, and yet they choose to do their job knowing that they have a decent chance of a blood exposure at some point.

Any little jump or unexpected movement from a patient can cause an injury to a phlebotomist. Just the constant handling of needles is a high risk. Some phlebotomists draw blood from 50+ people a day, and every time they begin the procedure there is a chance that it will cause an injury to themselves.

Phlebotomists are aware of the risks, and continue to do their jobs anyway. It takes a special type of person to be willing to work in such a demanding and dangerous field, and it's just another reason why phlebotomists are so special.

Becoming nationally certified often comes with a pay raise, and will increase your chance of being hired over other applicants. It is an excellent way to prove your knowledge of phlebotomy.
