The Laboratory Department is a critical member of the diagnostic team, providing support to the physicians. Registered Lab Technologists use state-of-the-art computerized instrumentation to perform blood and body fluids tests. Laboratory services include hematology, serology, microbiology, clinical chemistry, and blood transfusion services. We are also a Preferred Blue Cross Blue Shield provider.
The laboratory is excited to announce the availability of Monocyte Distribution Width (MDW). MDW can be used as an Early Sepsis Indicator for patients aged 18-89 who present to the ED. This is another tool in our very important fight against early detection of sepsis.
