5. Phlebotomy


To guarantee proper collection, the phlebotomist is required to verbally confirm the patient's name and date of birth.

To assure patient safety -- a new and unused needle kit and tubes are shown to the patient prior to the blood being drawn.

The labeled and initialed tube is checked against the requisition for accuracy.
