CAP Survey

Congratulations to the Laboratory for a great survey by the College of American Pathology (CAP). Like JCAHO, the CAP survey is unannounced. When the survey team showed up, it was to conduct a rigorous review of all sections and processes.

Through the leadership of Brett Schelin, Kim Gruse, the section supervisors, and the pathologists, and the outstanding performance of the staff, we were ready.

We passed with flying colors; the physician team leader told Jamie Haeuser that they were VERY impressed with everything they saw.
