Phlebotomy training through an NHS employer

Training in phlebotomy as part of an NHS job, and what to ask about it.

How it works

Some NHS employers train their own staff in phlebotomy, and some advertise trainee phlebotomist posts. Training takes place at work, under supervision, using the employer’s equipment and procedures.

What to ask

Ask whether the training leads to a qualification you can take to another employer, or to an internal sign-off that applies only where you trained.

Finding posts

NHS vacancies in England and Wales are advertised on NHS Jobs. Scotland and Northern Ireland advertise health service vacancies through their own sites.
