If there are no clinical agencies that will accept the student based on the background check history, the student must be excused from the Phlebotomy program, regardless of the student's academic standing. This is explained in further detail in the Background Check Disclosure form listed above, under Admission Requirements.
- All Phlebotomy students are required to complete a Wisconsin Caregiver Background Check
- If you are required to have a National Criminal Background Check, Minnesota Caregiver Background Check or other states as applicable, your program instructor will advise you on the process.
