Mobile Phlebotomist Role Made Simple with Voila Platform
The Mobile phlebotomist sounds simple on paper, but there is much more than inserting a needle and pulling blood samples. A phlebotomist has several duties and responsibilities to be followed while carrying out each practice.
Like,
On-time sample pick-up and drop
Updating accurate patient details
Monitoring end to end temperature to name a few.
The major concerns of Mobile Phlebotomist,
Being at right time:
The conventional practices had the struggle to cope with the right time. Since, the practices include more manual works to notify the phlebotomist via phone call and need to convey the patient details, location, and test requirements.
When a patient is booking through a website or call, the laboratories get the notification and allocate the phlebotomist who is nearer to the patient area. A phlebotomist gets a notification including the patient details with the test which has to be carried out; the shortest way using scientific GPS and time required to reach the patient's location etc… everything will be sorted out within few minutes of booking.
It brings a hassle-free environment for the phlebotomist and he/she will be reaching the patient's location at the right time without any delay.
The practice is completely organized while using Voila – Every patient matters.
Zero sample misplacement/loss:
Collecting samples and storing them all in one place without proper indication of patient details in the vials, implies misplacement of sample and also lead to potential consequences. A phlebotomist is responsible for the accurate labelling of samples collected.
With the efficient barcode integration on every sample container/vial, the hectic process of updating patient’s details can be made simple with the Mobile Phlebotomy App. It also helps the laboratories to cross-examine the patient details which are updated, with the appointment details. The phlebo app helps labs to avoid misplacement of samples in every practice.
Complete Temperature Monitoring:
Temperature is inevitable in every practice, the blood is drawn from the patient and not keeping the samples under prescribed temperature diminishes the quality of blood which cannot be used for test/treatment. Once again, the phlebotomist had to reach the patient's location to draw blood samples.
Once the samples are collected, the phlebotomist inserts them in a box-shaped kit which is completely monitored and provides real-time data to the CRM which is integrated with Voila’s phlebotomy app. The temperature will be monitored from pick up to delivery till it reaches the laboratory - avoids sample loss due to improper temperature and improves the accuracy of the report.
End to End Phlebotomist Tracking:
There will be a human error where samples are missing also while changing hands at multiple labs chains before reaching the final destination; brings more chances of losing/missing a sample.
With Voila’s Mobile Phlebotomy app, every sample can be tracked and monitored with real-time data. The phlebotomist also has the visibility of where they delivered the samples and the volume of samples delivered at different laboratories etc... The laboratories also have the complete visibility of on-ground phlebotomists and samples.
Using, the end-to-end tracking laboratories will never miss a sample.
