Code
of Ethics of
The American Society for Clinical Laboratory Science (ASCLS)
You will have access to privileged information,
such as case histories, results of tests and diagnoses. There are two important
rules that MUST be followed:
-
Do not try to interpret results of laboratory
procedures to the patient.
-
All information learned about patients
is confidential, not public information. Patient information and test
results are not to be discussed outside the laboratory, e.g., elevators,
cafeteria, hallways or home environment.
