Should the lab coat be removed once the phlebotomist has entered the lab?

True
False

The correct answer is: False

The lab coat should not be removed once the phlebotomist has entered the lab. This is because the lab coat serves as a protective barrier against potential hazards in the lab such as chemical spills or biological samples. Removing the lab coat while in the lab could expose the phlebotomist to these hazards and increase their risk of injury or contamination. Therefore, it is important for the phlebotomist to keep their lab coat on at all times while in the lab. Selecting option A as the answer is incorrect because it suggests that the lab coat should be removed once in the lab, which is not safe or recommended.
