National Medical Laboratory Week April 11-17
Our members working in medical laboratories throughout the province are a critical part of your health care team. Most of their work is done behind the scenes, but it has a significant impact on direct patient care.
Medical laboratory professionals process and analyze samples to provide information vital to patients’ health. They are behind every lab test result, and that work helps inform diagnosis, treatment and overall patient care.
In addition to this valuable work, these workers have been tasked with processing more than 442,000 COVID tests, to-date. They have been a huge, hidden part of our fight against this pandemic.
Thank you for the work you do, keeping Nova Scotians healthy and safe!
