Needle reused without proper sterile technique

My child had blood tests taken at a local health centre today. During the procedure, a healthcare professional attempted to draw blood from the left arm but was unsuccessful after two attempts. The needle was then placed on a tray where it made contact with various surfaces. The same needle was subsequently retrieved from the tray and used to attempt blood collection from the right arm, requiring two further attempts before being successful. I have concerns about the sterility and safety practices observed during this procedure. The handling of the needle and the approach taken did not appear to follow standard infection control protocols. As someone with medical training, I found this experience troubling and felt it fell short of expected professional standards. I was upset for my child throughout this process and believe this matter warrants review and appropriate action to ensure such practices do not occur in future.
