Are you searching for phlebotomy schools, but don’t know where to start? Or maybe you just need information to help determine the differences of phlebotomy schools in Florida. Southern Technical Institute welcomes you to our online website to provide you for useful information regarding Phlebotomy Technician training.

If you’re having trouble finding a job, or are ready for a new career, you may need to start thinking outside the box. For example, you might look into phlebotomy. When you go to the doctor, a phlebotomist is the person who draws a sample of your blood for analysis. Drawing blood requires a very specific set of skills, which you can learn in a Phlebotomy Technician diploma course at Southern Technical Institute. We’re honored to provide phlebotomy training and other continuing education courses to people throughout the Tampa Bay and Central Florida areas.

Southern Technical Institute offers phlebotomy training in a variety of Day and Evening class options. We offer phlebotomy courses in options that are sure to meet your individual needs. For example, Phlebotomy Certificate Training is an option for current medical professionals that wish to expand their knowledge about blood draw techniques and procedures. If you are limited in availability and seek flexibility, we offer phlebotomy class lectures online combined with on-campus clinical lab skills for hands-on blood draw practice. If you are looking for a career as a Phlebotomist, we suggest the Phlebotomy Technician Diploma Program that includes clinical rotation at a local healthcare facility for real world experience.

Phlebotomy Basics

The word phlebo comes from the Greek word for “blood vessel,” while – tomy means “incision.” A phlebotomist is responsible for safely drawing blood and performing associated activities. Phlebotomy is more complicated than most people realize—in addition to drawing blood, a phlebotomist must select the appropriate containers, label them correctly, and quickly bandage patients after drawing blood. It also helps to be good with people, as many patients feel nervous about the prospect of having their blood drawn.
