The ETMC Tyler and ETMC South Broadway laboratories have been
awarded accreditation by the Accreditation Committee of the College
of American Pathologist (CAP) based on a recent on-site
inspection.
ETMC Tyler's laboratories, under the direction of Joy Anderson
and Medical Director Brent R. Harris, MD, are part of the more than
7,000 CAP-accredited laboratories worldwide.
During accreditation and inspection process, inspectors examined
the laboratories' records, quality control of procedures and
quality assurance for the past two years. CAP inspectors also
examined laboratory staff qualifications, as well as the
laboratories equipment, facilities, safety program, and the overall
management. This stringent inspection program is designed to
specifically ensure the highest standard of care for all laboratory
patients.
