Description

Public Health England (PHE), Rapid Investigations Team (RIT) seeks to appoint provider(s) of phlebotomy services to facilitate the rapid collection of biological samples during outbreak response and investigation. The appointed provider(s) of phlebotomy services will perform phlebotomy in their practice premises, at a location of an outbreak investigation (for example, school, care home, workplace-setting, other community space or location) or in a patient's own home as determined by PHE RIT and the exact requirements of the outbreak response. This service must be provided by suitably trained phlebotomists or nurses. The service will be provided during core operating times for the appointed provider(s) or during hours as agreed with PHE RIT. In the case of a public health emergency and the need to collect biological samples more urgently, the provider(s) may be requested to operate outside normal operating time and at weekends and bank holidays. The service is available to all patients aged 16 years and over living in England (several providers may be selected depending on geographies covered by Bidders).
