3. PRINCIPLES OF BLOOD SAMPLING The following are the principles of blood sampling; PLANNING AHEAD USING AN APPROPRAITE LOCATION QUALITY CONTROL QUALITY CARE FOR PATIENT AND HEALTH WORKERS AVAILABILITY OF APPROPRAITE SUPPLY AND PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AVAILABILITY OF POST EXPOSURE PROPHYLAXIS TRAINING IN PHLEBOTOMY

4. PLANNING AHEAD This is the most important part of carrying out any process, and is usually done at the start of a phlebotomy session.

5. USING APPROPRAITE LOCATION The phlebotomist should work in a quite, clean, well lit area with outpatients and inpatients.

6. QUALITY CONTROL Quality assurance is an essential part of best practice in infection prevention and control. It helps minimize the chances of a mishap.

7. QUALITY CARE OF PATIENTS Several factors can improve safety standards and quality of care for both patients and health care workers, and laboratory test.

8. AVAILABILITY OF APPROPRAITE SUPPLIES AND PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENTS Provide hand hygiene materials (soap and water or alcohol sanitizer), well fitting non-sterile gloves, single use disposable needles, and syringes or lacing devices in sufficient numbers to ensure that each patient has a sterile needle and syringe or equivalent for each blood sampling.

9. AVAILABILITY OF POST EXPOSURE PROPHYLAXIS Accidental exposure and specific information about an incident should be recorded in a register. Supportive services should be promoted for those who undergo accidental exposure.

10. TRAINING IN PHLEBOTOMY All staff should be trained in phlebotomy, to prevent unnecessary risk of exposure to blood and to reduce adverse events for patients.
