Every year, lab workers across the country dedicate a week to celebrate remarkable achievements in Laboratory Medicine, progress made year after year, and the people who make it all happen.
Clinical and public health laboratories may be hidden from sight but their contributions to our health and safety do not go unnoticed. We celebrate the unique contributions laboratory professionals make in clinical settings and beyond.
The hardworking “lab people” at Cooper work across multiple locations, tirelessly ensuring excellence in their work. Cooper’s laboratory team members include pathologists, medical technologists and technicians, phlebotomists, administrative coordinators, lead technicians, supervisors, managers, cytotechnologists, cytology prep technicians, histotechnicians, cytogenetics technologists, lab assistants, and anatomic pathology technicians. Each plays a vital role, using their unique skills to ensure that all testing sent to the lab is received, processed, and reported accurately to provide the highest standard of patient care that Cooper offers.
This week, please take a moment to express your gratitude to a lab professional—they truly deserve it!
