Request and Response

I am looking for information regarding access to phlebotomy services in the community.

  1. Are GP contractors required or expected to provide phlebotomy services to patients in your NHS board area? 

See answer to Q2.

  1. What is the provision for blood sample collection through either phlebotomy services or CTACs in your NHS board area?

We do not have phlebotomy only services. This service is delivered jointly by Community Treatment and Care, and Health Care Support Workers working within the General Practice Nursing team.
