Phlebotomy technicians are important members of the healthcare team who usually work with physicians, laboratory staff, nurses and patients. They are healthcare professionals who are trained to obtain blood samples from patients. Generally, defined as phlebotomists, at times their responsibility also revolves around taking finger-prick hemoglobin tests, which doesn't involve using a needle. Their primary role is not just confined to collect blood for accurate and reliable laboratory testing. In fact, their responsibility also includes venipuncture or capillary collection.

After taking the blood sample, phlebotomists label the sample container, making sure that it includes all pertinent information about the patient's records. They're responsible for transporting the fluids between the sample site and the lab, but they have lots of other duties, such as:

• Perform computer operations (data entry and other office tasks) that are needed to accurately process the sample
• Following all safety regulations
• Perform and maintain quality control procedures
• Conduct interviews and take the vital signs of patients

The laboratory depends on the skill and diligence of phlebotomists in order to obtain accurate lab results. Not only do phlebotomists play an important role in lab work, but their skill is highly sought after during transfusions, blood donations, and clinical research. Due the diverse nature of their responsibilities, Phlebotomists have the option of working in several different places. They can conduct home healthcare visits, and are also found in hospitals, labs, clinics, and physicians' offices.

Becoming a phlebotomy technician usually requires a high school diploma or equivalent and three month or more of specialized training, either on-the-job or through a formalized healthcare program. Today there are many universities and schools that offer Phlebotomy Technician programs. During these programs, a student learns how to draw blood and how to cooperate with patients. Once a student completes the programs, he or she may choose to become certified professionals.
