- When phlebotomists and other healthcare professionals who draw blood make exceptions to the standard protocol for identifying patients can launch a cascade of events with serious consequences. Not just for the patient, but for themselves as well. This video details what the industry standard mandates for patient identification prior to a blood draw. The presenter, Dennis J. Ernst, distills it all down to The Golden Rule of Patient Identification that will prevent you from ever drawing blood from the wrong patient. Your Personal Phlebotomy Guru also describes an incident in which he was personally misidentified.
