The primary function of a Phlebotomist, also known as a Phlebotomy Technician, is the collection of blood samples from patients by venipuncture or micro-techniques. Phlebotomy plays a key role in laboratory testing and patient care. It is widely accepted that the quality of a laboratory test is only as good as the specimen that was collected. Due to the need to be cost-effective, Phlebotomy has now become a specialized area of clinical laboratory practice. Although a hospital is a common place where a phlebotomy technician may work, clinics, acute care facilities as well as doctors offices, are also ideal places for a phlebotomist to work.

A Phlebotomy Technician's responsibilities may include, but are not limited to the following:

• Performing venipunctures.
• Performing capillary draws.
• Transporting specimens to the laboratory.
• Professionally interact with patients treating patients with empathy and compassion.
• Respecting a patient's rights
• Recognizing the need for continuing education and staying current in health care mandates.
