Phlebotomy plays a key role in laboratory testing and patient care. It is widely accepted that the quality of a laboratory test is only as good as the specimen that was collected. Due to the need to be cost effective, Phlebotomy has now become a specialized area of clinical laboratory practice. Although a hospital is a common place where a phlebotomy technician may work, clinics, acute care facilities as well as doctor's offices are also ideal places for a phlebotomist to work. According to the Occupational Outlook Handbook, the expected growth for phlebotomy technicians is anticipated to be about 17% from 2019-2029.
