Phlebotomist schools provide you with training in venipuncture and capillary collection. Phlebotomist schools provide courses in general medical science as well as the writing and computer skills necessary to work as a phlebotomist. Classroom work is complemented by clinical laboratory courses that allow students to work as a phlebotomist in the lab before having to do so on the job. In many cases, this is further enhanced by an internship experience at a site that works in conjunction with the schools.

A phlebotomist is responsible for collecting blood from patients according to doctor's instructions, separating the blood into different test tubes so that it can be used in different tests, accurately labeling the tubes, and insuring that the right samples are sent to the lab. To do this, the phlebotomist must have very steady hands and be very precise and detail oriented, as errors can cause incorrect medical diagnoses and treatment. The phlebotomist must also have excellent people skills in order to help the patient remain calm and relaxed. A phlebotomist can find work in a doctor's office, lab, clinic, blood center, nursing homes or insurance office.
