All Allied Health Schools Launches "How to Become a Phlebotomist" Online Training Guide
Trained phlebotomy technicians are in high demand.
Seattle, WA (PRWEB) June 13, 2007 -- All Allied Health Schools (www.allalliedhealthschools.com), the Internet's largest directory of accredited health care colleges and universities, today announced the launch of a new online resource called "How to Become a Phlebotomist" for individuals interested in pursuing a career in lab sciences and phlebotomy (the practice of drawing and collecting blood samples from patients).
While only two states in the country have educational requirements to become a phlebotomist, most hospitals and health care facilities give preference to individuals who have graduated from an accredited phlebotomy technician training program and have received certification from an organization such as the American Society for Clinical Pathology or the Association of Phlebotomy Technicians. The new phlebotomy career guide is designed to provide prospective students with all of the information they need to evaluate and begin their pursuit of a new calling. Those interested in learning more can visit the phlebotomy career training guide at: http://www.allalliedhealthschools.com/faqs/phlebotomy.php
According to the American Society of Phlebotomy Technicians, "Phlebotomy health care professionals are an important part of the laboratory team, often the only part of the lab staff that a patient sees... the public relations people."
"Phlebotomy technician is a common starting point before moving into a number of other health care careers," said Dennis Green, product manager for All Allied Health Schools. "In addition to phlebotomy, we provide detailed career information on numerous health care fields, ranging from medical assisting to ultrasound technology. These free resources are available to help career minded individuals make smarter, more informed decisions about their education and career direction."
Demand for trained phlebotomy technicians in the U.S. is high and growing, with an estimated 20% growth in the market over the next decade. However, more hospitals and health care facilities advertising job postings are now seeking certified phlebotomy technicians, making it critical for those interested in the field to get the necessary training. The career guide details certification information, as well as salary data and phlebotomy technician programs. The site also offers an insightful interview with a phlebotomist of 15 years, infused with real-life experiences and humorous insights.
