Why should I choose Northwest Phlebotomy School?
Our goal is to get you certified and prepared to further your skills as a medical professional. By keeping our classes small, we ensure every student gets ample one-on-one instruction that is tailored to individual needs and healthcare experience levels.
Our classes are a combination of lab and lecture. Although preparing you for a national certification exam is a priority, we would rather spend a majority of our classroom time in the lab to get you acquainted and comfortable with various equipment and procedures.
Our instructors are knowledgeable and experienced healthcare professionals and are eager to help you along every step of the way. Although working in healthcare is serious business, we aim to provide a fun and comfortable environment for everyone in the classroom.
Upon course completion, you will be certified and ready to apply for positions as a certified phlebotomist.
Are there any prerequisites for your medical training programs?
Healthcare is an amazing career move for many people and offers a wide variety of work environments and schedules.
In addition to previous experience working in healthcare such as Certified Nursing Assistant, Emergency Medical Technician, etc, we also require a high school diploma, GED, or its equivalent based on state and national regulations. We welcome students of all ages, education backgrounds, and experience levels in healthcare to join us in our classes and continue building their current skillsets.

What will my three day phlebotomy course look like?
Each day is structured with the first portion of the class being lecture and the second half of class consisting of hands-on lab practice. Day one we discuss basic anatomy and physiology and basic venipuncture. We also learn how to place tourniquets and find veins. We exclusively will draw on simulation arms to get comfortable with our steps and safety components.
Day two we will discuss special considerations such as pediatrics and geriatrics as well as the importance of preventing needlestick injuries in the field. Lab will give us time to discuss the use of butterfly needles, hand draws as well as drawing with a syringe. We will also begin live draws on day two. No need to worry as it is ultimately up to you if you would like to be drawn on in class as a patient.
On the last day of class we will learn about various blood borne pathogens as well as preventing infection in the field. Lab will consist of practice of methods in the days prior as well as completing your practical exam with your instructor.
Why are your classes so much shorter?
Our curriculum is approved by the National Registry of Allied Health Professionals (NRAHP). The NRAHP is an organization that unites healthcare workers and establishes a standard of education. We work together to ensure the highest level of knowledge and proficiency for all healthcare providers.
Because we are a continuing education program we do not offer any college credit and therefore do not adhere to credit hours. Our goal is to get you certified and further your skillset as a healthcare professional. By keeping our classes small, we ensure every student gets ample one on one instruction and coaching tailored to individual needs and experience levels.

So happy I signed up for this class!”

“I attended the phlebotomy class in Raleigh on Nov. 8-10 with Kyle and Eric as the instructors. They made the class a very enjoyable environment to learn in. I went in very nervous and a little intimidated but the way they instructed the class made me relax very early on and my classmates made it easy to learn as well when it came to the hands-on portion. I would HIGHLY recommend this course and these instructors.”
