Lab Foundations 1 (HLUC 1115)

This course builds on the theory and practice from Semester 1 and provides students with the procedures to process hematology and chemistry orders. The responsibilities of the Laboratory Department, its personnel and the hospital staff are also discussed. Students will develop information literacy skills in class by creating and using their own resources to complete tasks accurately and safely on electronic or paper health records. Students will continue to develop their knowledge of the role and responsibility of the health unit coordinator (HUC) in the healthcare setting.
