You’ll find Speedy Sticks standing at the front of the progressive healthcare crowd, offering a comprehensive suite of mobile lab services designed to bring high-quality healthcare directly to you.
If you’re not familiar with mobile healthcare and all its perks, read on! This blog takes a deep dive into why ‘mobile phlebotomy’ is the latest buzzphrase that you need to know about.
Understanding Phlebotomy And The Rise of Mobile Labs
The practice of phlebotomy is crucial for diagnostic medicine, providing vital insights into a patient’s health and informing the best course of action, whether that be to predict disease risk, help with medical conditions, or monitor blood count to explain symptoms that indicate common infections and deficiencies.
Mobile phlebotomy services represent a significant leap forward in making healthcare more accessible and patient-centered. In the last few years, there has been a reported 30% annual growth1 in such services, highlighting the patient’s preference for convenient healthcare, and equally, an awareness among healthcare providers that traditional diagnostic methods exclusively within clinical settings are no longer enough.
The Patient Benefits of Mobile Phlebotomy Services
Mobile phlebotomy services offer a much-needed solution for many individuals, bridging the gap between patients and essential healthcare. Mobile labs aren’t just vital for those who face mobility challenges and struggle to leave their homes for appointments. They also lend a helping hand to nursing home staff, provide crucial support in clinical research, and even just save time in busy schedules. Here are a few reasons why mobile phlebotomy is your new health management best friend:
- Convenience: you get access to professional blood draw services without leaving your home
- Flexibility: you have the freedom to schedule appointments at times that work best for you, accommodating even the busiest lifestyles
- Comfort and privacy: you experience the ease of undergoing necessary procedures in the comfort and privacy of your own home
- Efficiency: waiting times are reduced, you receive your results faster, and quicker decision-making can progress your healthcare journey, easing any unnecessary health anxiety
HealthLine has carried out some interesting research into the impact of at-home blood work services and how they’re predicted to continue growing in the next few years.
The Health System Benefits of Mobile Phlebotomy Services
A successful, patient-centric approach is only possible through a more efficient, streamlined healthcare service.
Expanding on traditional phlebotomy with at-home blood draws goes a long way to achieving this. If you’re a healthcare provider reading this, here’s how mobile phlebotomy can improve your work, and support your patients in various settings:
- Ease of use = more successful outcomes: when your patient feels comfortable, taking blood is always easier. This means you can more efficiently get health concerns tested, and act faster to treat them. If you work with older or more vulnerable patients, you’re not placing them under any additional stress of getting blood work done in a clinical setting
- Time saved = less stress: when you know your time is being saved from booking a patient into a clinic at a specific time, you have the freedom to get on with other vital aspects of your job
- A more productive healthcare system: there’s less need for in-person clinics that only operate on certain days. This can reduce overall wait times, alleviating the burden on facilities and resources, which also improves patient satisfaction
- Advancing research, saving more lives: if you work within clinical research, knowing that blood results are safely and efficiently getting to you for analysis is one less thing to worry about, giving you the space, time, and support to further develop your research and help save more lives.
