This course provides an introduction to the fundamental knowledge underpinning routine practical techniques used within a transfusion laboratory. Alongside the theoretical background and knowledge, the course offers basic practical experience of routine transfusion techniques, performed within a transfusion laboratory environment.
The course is structured to deliver knowledge using a combination of digital learning sessions or modules, and practical training in a laboratory environment. The 5 day course is deliberately constructed to offer an accessible learning experience to prepare learners for either progression onto our specialist courses or for hands-on experience in a role within a live environment, such as a transfusion laboratory to embed their skills.
