Overview

More than 250 years ago, one of the founding fathers, Benjamin Franklin, published a yearly almanac that contained a collection of useful information and advice for the American colonists. Titled Poor Richard's Almanack, it was one of the first bestsellers of America. For decades, Franklin's almanac provided indispensable advice and encouragement to struggling settlers in the new world. Summoning that spirit, Dr. Sharon S. Ehmeyer has written The Poor Lab's Guide to the Regulations, a plain-language discussion of the rules, requirements and regulations that govern medical laboratories, with a focus on US medical laboratories. Achieving and maintaining compliance isn't an easy task. But with the new Poor Lab's Guide, getting the right advice is very easy. In 9 concise chapters, Dr. Ehrmeyer describes a common-sense path to compliance: * An overview of regulations from CLIA, CAP, TJC, and COLA * Proficiency Testing * Procedure Manuals * Method Verification, Calibration and Calibration Verification * Quality Control for the small laboratory * Quality Assurance * Personnel Competency Requirements * Inspection Tips, Tools for Self-preparedness * Point-of-Care testing requirements, EQC and the future The Poor Lab's Guide is an essential guide to compliance for laboratories small and large.
