Each person has unique technical skills and everything done by one person impacts the next step in the ongoing treatment of the patient. A surgeon cannot replace a laboratory technologist, a nurse cannot replace a pharmacist, and so on. We depend on, and expect, the proper execution of these skills: the accuracy of tests performed by a lab technologist, radiographer, or MRI technologist leads to the accurate diagnosis by the doctor. Constant vigilance by staff such as – but not limited to! – therapists, technologists, BME techs, records techs, transcriptionists and pharmacists regarding medications, sterile procedures, tests, and treatments ensures that nothing is missed and minimizes the risk of complications.
