Symposium for Clinical Laboratories: An Interactive Experience in Quality Systems

Lake Buena Vista, Florida USA
Join speaker Glen Fine, MBA, MS, Executive Vice President, CLSI
at the Symposium for Clinical Laboratories
Don’t Reinvent the Wheel: Using Standards to Improve Quality Outcomes
The majority of errors caused in any organization are due to system and process errors. Your laboratory undoubtedly has areas for improvement and the chances are that others have had the same ones ….so why not learn from them? Standardization is a combination of vision and action. Mr. Fine will make the case of why standards not only matter, but how they are essential for quality patient care. Using examples from CLSI, a nonprofit, voluntary consensus standards-developing organization in the clinical laboratory field, Mr. Fine will discuss the essentials of following best practice standards and guidelines.
