3.00 Credits
A method of instruction providing detailed education, training, work-based experience, and direct patient/client care generally at a clinical site. Specific detailed learning objectives are developed for each course by faculty. On-site clinical instruction, supervision, evaluation, and placement are the responsibility of the college faculty. Course may be repeated if topics and learning outcomes vary. Learning Outcomes: As outlined in the learning plan, the student will apply the theory, concepts, and skills involving specialized materials, equipment, procedures, regulations, laws and interactions within and among political, economic, environmental, social, and legal systems associated with the particular occupation and the business/ industry; and demonstrate legal and ethical behavior, safety practices, and interpersonal and teamwork skills communicating in the applicable language of the occupation and the business or industry. Key Concepts: Students will be provided with clinical experiences to gain proficiency and competence in the performance of diagnostic examinations and techniques in clinical chemistry, hematology, coagulation, phlebotomy, and urinalysis. Students must demonstrate compliance with standard Quality Assurance programs, specimen processing, and care of equipment. Prerequisites: MLAB1311, MLAB 1201, MLAB 1415, MLAB 2401 and PLAB 1223.
