The second portion of the course will be hands-on practice and validation of phlebotomy skills using task trainers.

After completion of this course, the participants will be able to describe indications for phlebotomy, discuss different methods used to obtain blood samples, list the supplies needed for a blood draw, demonstrate the step-by-step process for collecting a blood sample, and identify complications that can occur with phlebotomy procedures.
