Phlebotomy
One quarter Certificate of Training
This program is established to meet the State of WA Dept. of Health Medical Assistant-Phlebotomist Certification requirements. It also meets the need for students to take the NHA National Certification exam. The course includes HIV/AIDS training, basic anatomy and physiology, medical terminology, how to avoid pre-analytical errors, and how to be successful in collecting blood samples. You will learn how to collect blood samples using all of the tools currently being used in the laboratory industry. Students will collect blood samples from fellow students as well.
