New phlebotomy room set up at healthcare centre
Wednesday 8th April 2009
Phlebotomists operating at a surgery in Bognor Regis are now able to make use of a new room.
The space, which has been created at Maywood Healthcare Centre, was funded by money raised in memory of a former patient, Bognor Today reports.
Mandi Britton and her partner Michael Denton rose more than £1,400 in honour of her late sister, Toni Britton.
The pair climbed Mont Blanc - which is the highest mountain in the Alps - last summer in a bid to raise the cash.
Thanks to the money they gathered, a special blood-taking chair has been purchased which is designed to make patients feel more at ease.
Commenting on the developments, Ms Britton said: "I am overwhelmed by the new room. My sister had to have a lot of blood tests during her life and this is really appropriate."
Her sister died in December 2007 at the age of 38.
