New phlebotomy training course
Our Senior Phlebotomists at Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust are teaching a new Phlebotomy Training Programme.
You don’t need to have any previous qualifications to attend so the course is ideal for anyone wanting to change careers or set out on a new path.
Lou Bushell, Phlebotomy Service Manager said: “We have just had the first group taking our course and it was a real pleasure to meet them. Whether you already work in healthcare and want to try something new – or you’re looking for a career change and think this might be an interesting first step - please sign up.”
Classes take place monthly and the course itself lasts for two days - one covering theory (at University Hospital Lewisham) and a second on practical aspects. On passing the course you will have a certificate of competency (practical) and a certificate of conclusion (theory). These are qualifications recognised by the CPD Certification Service that would allow you to apply for roles and start a new career as a Phlebotomist.
The course costs £600 and all the information you need on booking a place and payment can be found on our Eventbrite page .
Bookings will be taken at least two weeks in advance to allow time for DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) checks and other admin.
