Phlebotomist guide

Home collections: walks the day’s route, labels the tubes and hands them over at the lab; sees no results.

The demo opens as Manoj Kumar, with invented patients. Five home collections on today’s route, and the handover at the lab.
  • Every home collection made in its slot
  • Every tube labelled at the door
  • Samples handed over at the lab in time and in the cold box

Where the phlebotomist lands

Signing in as a phlebotomist opens Home Draws first. The sidebar keeps the screens below one click away; what you can open is whatever your practice’s role for you allows.

Rain

What to ask Rain

Rain is the assistant in every screen, by voice or text. These are requests the assistant is taught for this role. It reads only what you may read, and anything that changes a record comes back as a card you confirm.

  • “Open my collection route”
  • “Show the sample handovers”
  • “Find the patient at this address”
  • “How many home collections are left today?”
  • “Which stop is next on my route?”
  • “Which collections failed and need a redraw?”
  • “When must the samples reach the lab?”
  • “How many tubes do I need for a lipid profile?”
  • “Aaj kitne ghar ke sample baaki hain?”
  • “मेरा रूट खोलो”
  • “Agla patient kahan hai?”

What Rain prepares for a phlebotomist to confirm: create a to-do for yourself, a colleague or a team; mark one of your to-dos (or your team’s) done; receive a sample at the lab from a courier manifest.

Say “Brief me” for a spoken summary of your day. More in the Rain guide and on what each role says.
