Monday, April 7th, 2008

Garrett County Memorial Hospital has been granted accreditation by AABB, according to Joyce Nutter, BS, MT (ASCP), and GCMH Laboratory Director.

Accreditation follows an intensive, on-site assessment by specially trained AABB assessors and establishes that the level of medical, technical and administrative performance within the facility meets or exceeds the standards set by AABB. By successfully meeting those requirements, Garrett County Memorial Hospital joins approximately 1,800 similar facilities across the United States and abroad that have earned AABB accreditation.
