5 Department of Laboratory Medicine The Department of Laboratory Medicine at Sacred Heart is accredited by the College of American Pathologists and is licensed as a medical test site by the Washington State Department of Health. The School of Medical Technology is accredited through the: National Accrediting Agency for Clinical Laboratory Sciences (NAACLS) 5600 N. River Road Suite 720, Rosemont, IL which conducts a periodic comprehensive review of the program. For more information on NAACLS, visit or call (773) The Department of Laboratory Medicine at Sacred Heart operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week and performs approximately 600 different procedures, handling over 3,900,000 patient samples per year. The staff includes 250 employees pathologists and other physicians, doctoral scientists, medical technologists, medical laboratory technicians, cytotechnologists, histotechnicians, laboratory assistants and other support staff. Program Philosophy The Medical Technology program at Providence Sacred Heart is designed for the student who wishes to become a skilled, competent medical laboratory scientist/medical technologist, capable of leadership in the profession of clinical laboratory science. We believe students learn most effectively when they are active participants and when faculty members help facilitate learning experiences. We believe learning can be measured by behavioral changes in the students, who, together with faculty, share in evaluation of the education. Providence Sacred Heart Medical Center is founded on the Christian principles of providing compassionate care with respect for the dignity of each person, including the poor and needy. The program is open to all qualified students, regardless of race, color, creed, disability, national origin or gender. Program History As part of the Department of Laboratory Medicine, the School of Medical Technology was initially accredited in May of 1932 by the American Society of Clinical Pathologists. At that time, the program accepted students with two years of college education prior to the clinical year. In the early 1950s, the program changed to a program (accepting students in their senior year of college) until 1979 when the program became a program, requiring a baccalaureate degree prior to the clinical year. In 2001, the school again began accepting students from established affiliated universities who grant the degree upon completion. 3

8 Program Description Professional Experience The program is 12 months long, Monday through Friday, and begins in July each year. Formal classroom instruction and student labs occur during the first four months in a fully-equipped laboratory where each student has a dedicated workbench, double-headed microscope and all necessary supplies to perform laboratory testing. The remaining eight months of instruction are devoted to hands-on experience in the clinical departments, with one day a week dedicated to advanced lecture topics and reviews. Medical technologists, pathologists, doctoral scientists and other experts provide the instruction. The professional year allows for extensive experience with state-of-the-art instrumentation and technology utilized throughout the clinical laboratory. The Inland Northwest Blood Center (INBC) ( is a clinical affiliate of the School of Medical Technology. The majority of the immunohematology instruction takes place in the student laboratory with additional testing experience at the INBC or the North Idaho Regional Health Consortium laboratories. More information about the Blood Center can be found on their web site. Up to two students per year may be selected to participate in clinical rotations at the North Idaho Rural Health Consortium. These five hospital laboratories are clinical affiliates of the Sacred Heart School of Medical Technology: Benewah Community Hospital, Bonner General Hospital, Boundary Community Hospital, Kootenai Health and Shoshone Medical Center. Rotations are provided in the major disciplines. Students participate in a wide variety of clinical experiences in the major disciplines of microbiology, hematology, chemistry and immunohematology. Additional rotations and experiences include immunology, toxicology, coagulation, parasitology, mycobacteriology, mycology, virology, molecular biology, serology, cytogenetics, phlebotomy, management and research. These clinical rotations are provided at Providence Sacred Hear Medical Center, Pathology Associates Medical Laboratories,the Inland Northwest Blood Center and at the North Idaho Rural Health Consortium laboratories. Clinical Partners Pathology Associates Medical Laboratories (PAML), a major regional reference laboratory, is a ministry of Providence Health and Services. Together, Sacred Heart and PAML collaborate to provide complete laboratory services to regional patients, physicians, hospitals, the insurance industry and businesses requiring drug testing. 6
9 Attendance Absenteeism and/or tardiness in the health care professions have the potential to reduce both quality of patient care and productivity of the department. Because the clinical year is very intense and students are expected to be committed,attendance and punctuality are mandatory and strictly enforced. The academic requirements for the Medical Technology program make it necessary for students to plan a specific number of hours for study each day; consequently, work schedules must be limited. Part-time employment may be available in the laboratory, however, employment should not interfere with clinical laboratory rotations. Rotation times vary to ensure quality education. Students must be able to adjust to the variations in schedules, including some early morning hours and some evening hours. Routine schedules do not include weekends or late night hours. Grades Student progress is evaluated throughout the year with written quizzes, exams, practicals and performance evaluations. Examinations are given for both didactic material and clinical experience with comprehensive exams given at the end of the clinical year. Grades are reported each semester/quarter to affiliated universities. A final transcript of grades is provided to the students and may also be provided to universities upon request. Certification Exams Graduates from the Sacred Heart School of Medical Technology receive a certificate of completion. This certificate, in addition to the baccalaureate degree, qualifies the graduate to take the national certification exam through the Board of Certification, a branch of the American Society for Clinical Pathology ( Some states also require a licensure examination for employment of medical technologists. Job Placement Although Providence Sacred Heart School of Medical Technology does not guarantee placement for its graduates, the School does act as a contact point for employers. Students often receive employment offers before graduation. Career opportunities are plentiful nationwide for medical technologists. The graduates of the program work in hospital laboratories, reference laboratories, physician offices/clinics, transfusion centers, and also in research, industry, laboratory information systems, management and education. Evaluations Students receive verbal and written feedback frequently during the professional year. Each student participates in the evaluation of clinical and didactic instruction. Constructive feedback is promoted, as program and instruction revision is ongoing and considered a critical component of the quality indicators of the program. 7
10 Admission Requirements Career Preparation To prepare for a career in medical technology, a student must have a bachelor s degree in science plus clinical education in an accredited medical technology program. Many colleges and universities offer a degree in medical technology via two routes of entry: a or a route. Students who elect a route, first complete their bachelor s degree at a college or university offering the appropriate prerequisite courses. The student seeks admission into the year of clinical internship at Providence Sacred Heart School of Medical Technology, where the clinical and professional experience is provided. Students most often apply at the beginning of their senior year of college. In the route, students complete three years of specifically defined prerequisite courses at an affiliated college or university. The student then seeks admission to the School of Medical Technology at Sacred Heart for the fourth year, which includes the clinical and professional education. In this route, the student will receive a Bachelor of Science degree from the university upon successful completion of the clinical internship. The students most often apply at the beginning of their junior year of college. Either the or the route qualifies the student to take the national certification exam, which is required for employment. Academics Applicants must have a minimum 2.7 cumulative grade point average with emphasis on high grades in the sciences. Grades of 3.0 and above are most competitive in the application process. Minimum prerequisites include: Chemistry A minimum of 16 semester credits (or 24 quarter credits) including general chemistry, organic chemistry and/or biochemistry*.
