PHLEBOTOMY PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
  • The word phlebotomy comes from the Greek and
    Latin and means to excise or cut into the vein.
    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.

6
  • In our program, we don't require that you take
    several non-related courses - we focus on the
    core curriculum needed for a phlebotomy
    certificate.
  • Whether you're sure you want to begin a
    fulfilling career as a phlebotomist or if you
    plan on choosing a different path altogether,
    medical training can provide you with a solid
    foundation on which you can build your future. If
    you are thinking about becoming a health care
    provider, you should choose a program with a
    proven track record.

How much does a phlebotomist make?
  • Generally a phlebotomist makes 12-14 per hour
    before shift differential. A shift differential
    is offered by many institutions as an incentive
    for working evenings, nights and weekends. An
    example of a common differential is 1 per hour
    for second shift (3-11pm), 1.50 per hour for
    third shift (11pm-7am), and 2 per hour for
    weekends. For example, a phlebotomist working
    third shift on a Saturday might make 17.50 per
    hour as a new Phlebotomy Technician (14 1.50

    more.
