The detailed curriculum outline of our Phlebotomy course is as follows:
Before a diagnosis is confirmed, one small procedure often sets everything in motion. This opening module introduces the purpose of phlebotomy and catheterisation, explains their role in modern healthcare, and explores the responsibilities of practitioners who perform these essential clinical procedures.
What if understanding the human body could make every clinical decision more precise? Gain a clear understanding of veins, blood circulation, body systems, and infection prevention while learning why patient safety remains the foundation of every successful healthcare procedure.
Here’s an insight many people overlook: laboratory accuracy begins long before a sample reaches the lab. Explore each stage of the blood collection process, from patient identification and specimen handling to quality assurance practices that help minimise errors and improve reliable diagnostic testing.
Imagine knowing the procedure but not understanding when—or why—it should be performed. This module examines the theoretical principles of urinary catheterisation, including indications, contraindications, infection prevention, patient dignity, and the importance of following recognised clinical protocols.
