Lab Professionals and Pathologists: It’s Your Moment to Shine During Lab Week, April 19-25!

Publication Date: Feb 26, 2020

Medical laboratory professionals possess a wealth of knowledge and are an invaluable part of the pathology and laboratory medicine healthcare team. Most are rarely seen by patients. Yet each and every laboratory professional has an enormous impact every day on the delivery of quality patient care.

This year, ASCP is celebrating Medical Laboratory Professionals Week (Lab Week), April 19-25, with the theme, “Fellowship of the Lab One Team to Diagnose Them All!” Be sure to share your passion for the profession by entering the ASCP 2020 Fellowship of the Lab Photo and Video Contest by Friday, April 3.

“Getting involved in Lab Week is a way for medical laboratory professionals and pathologists to showcase their ‘work family’ and how all of you, as a team, contribute to patient care,” says Jesse McCoy, PA(ASCP)^CM. “If you look at the photos or videos that laboratories have submitted to the ASCP Lab Week contest in previous years, you see that everyone comes up with something creative.”

Moreover, she adds, “It gives colleagues a project. When you say let’s enter a contest we could win and, if we win we could get prizes, it energizes everyone!”

ASCP is the only organization that represents every member of the pathology and laboratory medicine team. No one in our profession works in isolation. So show your team spirit and get involved!

The public will have an opportunity to take part in Round One of voting on the ASCP 2020 Fellowship of the Lab Photo and Video Contest on April 10. The five entries in each category, photo or video, receiving the highest number of votes will pass on to Round Two of voting from April 13 until April 16. Winners will be announced on April 22, and will receive fun prizes to celebrate Lab Week.

Now, let’s celebrate our commitment, passion, and dedication to patient care! Learn more about contest details by clicking on www.ascp.org/labweek.
