Hi everyone,

I would really encourage you to take a moment to read a blog article I wrote regarding a lab scientist's connection to their patients from "behind the scenes".  This subject is very near and dear to my heart and I hope others find that it resonates with them as well.  Please feel free to share any thoughts below the article in the comments section. Thank you for taking the time to click!  And as always, thank you for being an integral part of our healthcare system.

very well written! I'm going to save this for lab week.  the public only hears when bad things happen with the lab, and most nurses seem to think our job is to compromise samples so they have to be redrawn. they don't realize that we do know patients by name, bad results have an effect on us, and we often wonder how patients are doing.

Thank you so much!  I'm happy to hear you could relate.  Please share this with your fellow lab colleagues.   We are such an important part of healthcare.
