Taking Blood
How old does a child have to be to have a sample taken via phlebotomy?
Our phlebotomists will not take blood from children younger than 16 years old.
Can I bring my child in for a blood test?
Our phlebotomists will not take blood from children younger than 16 years old.
How old does a child have to be to have a sample taken via a finger prick?
We do not recommend attempting to take a finger-prick sample from anyone younger than 12 years old. However, this type of sample is likely to be easier to take than a draw from a vein. Parents or guardians are advised to use their own discretion.
Do you have needles for thinner veins?
We have a variety of needle sizes in store to make your blood taking experience comfortable.
How high do I need to fill the tube?
All tubes must be filled as much as possible, ideally to the top of the tube. This is to ensure that there is sufficient sample to provide a result. Please use as many lancets as necessary and follow the instructions provided with your kit.
How quickly should I post my samples after taking blood?
As quickly as possible – blood samples can deteriorate over time so do not post on weekends, bank holidays and at times when there is likely to be a delay.
Do I need to fast before I take my blood test?
You do not need to fast for our tests. If you have been requested to by your GP or health-care provider to fast, please write ‘fasting’ on the Test Request Form or call our Customer Service line at +44 7831236256
Miscellaneous
What is the best method to get enough blood from your finger for a home test kit?
Start by making sure your hands are warm as this will increase blood flow. Massage your finder downwards towards the tip rather than squeezing and make sure you prick your middle or ring finger.
Is there an NHS discount?
Yes, for any NHS staff we are offering some tests at a discounted rate. Please email info@sarvamhealth.co.uk for more information.
Can I walk-in for a blood test? Do you have a phlebotomist available at all times?
Yes. All our locations accept walk-ins.
Problems
Who can I contact if there’s a delay?
Please call our Customer Service team at +44 7831236256 please or write to us at info@sarvamhealth.co.uk
When can I expect my refund?
Please allow 10 working days to process the credit once the products have been returned and checked.
Will I get another kit sent to me if I cannot fill up the tube?
Yes, we can send you a new test kit by post. Alternatively, you can visit one of our branches to have a phlebotomist take your sample for an additional £30 fee.
Will my results ever be delayed?
Unfortunately, there are certain situations when your results can be delayed. We’ve listed a few reasons below:
1. Late delivery of sample
2. Maintenance of laboratory equipment
What does it mean when a sample is ‘haemolysed’?
Haemolysed blood means that the red blood cells have been damaged during the blood collection or transport processes. Heat can cause it too. Haemolysed blood can be difficult to test and can mean that the blood test needs to be repeated.
Why does a blood sample sometimes clot and how can this be avoided?
Unfortunately, there is no way to completely guarantee that a sample will not clot. To avoid clotting, make sure you gently turn the tube over a couple of times to mix the blood if it has a green or purple top.
Preparing Samples
How quickly should I post my samples after taking blood?
As quickly as possible – blood samples can deteriorate over time so do not post on weekends, bank holidays, and at times when there is likely to be a delay.
