SRC Labs achieve 100% certification
Congratulations to YKHC's Subregional Clinic labs!
In 2008 the Subregional Clinic laboratories achieved a staff certification rate of 100 percent.
The formal certification process for laboratory professionals requires successful completion of educational requirements through UAA, on-the-job clinical laboratory training through the YKHC Lab Assistant Training Program, and successful completion of the Board of Registry certification examination through the American Society of Clinical Pathology.
At this time, all four Subregional Clinic laboratory staff have accomplished this through hard work and self determination. Congratulations to Gerald Lamont, Emmonak; Elsie Chanar, Toksook Bay; Doris Turner, Aniak; and Eric Alstrom at St Mary's. Congratulations also to Leslie Boelens, the mentor who oversees the program and SRC laboratories.
