3PHLEBOTOMY PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
- The word phlebotomy comes from the Greek and

Phlebotomists literally cut into veins to remove
blood, however our instrument is very small and
our cuts almost microscopic.
4- Many people have their blood drawn before
surgery, during pregnancy or when they donate
blood at a blood bank. However the history of
phlebotomy comes from bloodletting. Bloodletting
was done for centuries to rid the human body of
evil spirits and illnesses.
5- Today the ART of phlebotomy is taught to
healthcare - workers so that your next blood draw experience
at the - hospital, laboratory or doctors office is a safe
and pleasant - one and so that your blood is treated properly to
insure the - best and most accurate results are given to your
physician.

several non-related courses - we focus on the
core curriculum needed for a phlebotomy
certificate. - Whether you're sure you want to begin a

foundation on which you can build your future. If
