"Phlebotomy experience"

About: Lagan Valley Hospital / Lisburn Phlebotomy Hub

(as the patient),

I went to level 2 treatment room for phlebotomy. One HCA did my bloods. They performed phlebotomy without any ANTT. They didn’t wear gloves, did not wipe my skin. Needle was not secured properly after insertion. I held the needle myself to prevent it from falling off. After the blood collection, my hand bruised so badly. I never had bruises before and my veins are easily accessible.
