Phlebotomy
Our Phlebotomy Technician program is designed to prepare students to enter the healthcare workforce as a phlebotomist. The program focuses on skill development in blood collection methods using proper techniques and universal precautions. It includes vacuum collection devices, syringes, capillary skin puncture, butterfly needles, blood culture and specimen collection.
