Introduction
Bodily samples cannot be taken without a warrant where the subject does not consent.[1]
There are several methods of obtaining bodily samples:
- general warrant (s. 487);
- DNA Sample (s. 487.05);
- blood sample demand (s. 320.28);
- blood sample warrant (s. 320.29);
- bodily impressions (s. 487.092)
A bodily sample can also be obtained by consent.[2]

Obtaining Blood Samples by General Warrant (487)
Where a nurse takes a blood sample from a patient as part of her regular course of duties, it is available to the police to obtain a warrant to seize the sample as evidence.
Blood taken by a nurse as part of hospital procedure will still be protected by an expectation of privacy.[1]
Where an officer directs the nurse to store a blood sample for a period beyond the time intended by the hospital, it will effectively enter into the custody of police.[2]
