Welcomed all, to my show “Meet Minerva, the Micro….biologist”. My name is Minerva A. Garcia. I am currently the Associate Director Microbiology at Jacobi Med. Center, NYC Health & Hospitals Corp. and…soooo, Microbiology along with the microbes welcomes you in today’s show, where I’ll be talking about the following topic.
HOW CAN WE AS LABORATORIANS, BRING AWARENESS TO PUBLIC?
We have 4 gueststhat I will have the honor to interview:
- Eve Quinn,
- Denise Twiggs-Freeman
- Karyn and Carla – Two Med Technology students doing their rotation in Microbiology in my lab.
Let’s get right into the title: HOW CAN WE AS LABORATORIANS, BRING AWARENESS TO THE PUBLIC?
Medical Laboratory Professionals Week (MLPW) celebration started April 1975 providing an opportunity to increase public awareness, understanding and appreciation for laboratory professionals. this year April 23-29, 2023 with the 2023 theme and logo; “Saved by The Lab” offered by ASCP and Jim Coleman, Ltd. Is a great time to raise awareness of the impact the laboratory has on patients and providers in the community, where we can spotlight lab staff with the value they bring to making a difference. Clinical laboratory tests: The lab saves lives, time, costs, and lives, it enables early detection/prevention of disease. 7 billion clinical lab tests performed USA annually providing critical valuable data to hospital clinicians private practice, as well. We can expect physicians’ making decisions are vital in saving their patients’ lives. The lab supports the provider in delivering the best care possible. Clinicians use laboratory data to make a new diagnosis, confirm the effectiveness or ineffectiveness of a specific drug, evaluate the remission status of a patient with example cancer, or confirm that no further testing is required for a patient who has a particular illness or chronic illness.
Laboratory data is an essential part of patient care, it’s important to mention that the Lab Information system (LIS) is critical to patient care, because it allows the transfer of lab test results onto the designated lab section test results via the LIS, where physicians read and interpret this results of their patients. Treatments thus occur.
