Celebrating Laboratory Professionals Week

The clinical laboratories at UM Shore Regional Health process more than one million tests annually. It takes a dedicated team of phlebotomists, specimen processors, client service representatives, histotechnologists, cytotechnologists, clinical/medical laboratory scientists, and pathologists to ensure that tests are collected, processed, analyzed and reported promptly. Patients and providers depend on this team to deliver quick and accurate results.

UM SRH’s laboratories are accredited by the College of American Pathologists, the American Association of Blood Banks, and the State of Maryland/CLIA. The bi-annual inspections ensure that we maintain our high quality labs. Our high quality team makes sure that their hearts and minds go into each test they collect or perform, or phone call they make.

“On behalf of our UM SRH family, I’d like to wish our entire lab team a very happy Laboratory Professionals week,” said Ken Kozel, UM SRH President and CEO. “With great appreciation, we thank you for your tireless efforts in support of our clinicians as they diagnose and treat our patients. The work you do every day truly matters, and contributes greatly towards our vision of being the regions leader in patient-centered care.”

Please join UM SRH in thanking our wonderful laboratory team this Medical Laboratory Professional’s Week – they do an amazing job each day!
