Phlebotomy Courses

[Smiffy]

Hi PSB,

Looking into doing a Phlebotomy course, wanted some more information. I figured there are a few medical people on here and you might be able to point me in the right direction.

I know of two courses one at RPH and one with Clinipath. What should I be looking out for in a course? Are there any others available?

All help welcome.

Thanks guys!

Is there a link to the RPH one ?

Do RPH.
Far more comprehensive, and well regarded across the pathology industry.

Even though its a 6 week course instead of the 3 month course offered by clinipath?

RPH is fulltime vs part time.

Maybe research via prospective employers as to who outputs the best practitioners, or
ask people working in the space (path lab creatures, doctors... experienced plebs) who is competent (on training completion) and who is not.
Your time/money... good luck whichever way you go.
