LABORATORY ACTIVITIES. Each Side intends to inform the other Side of the laboratory activities that they coordinate respectively, with the aim of ensuring coordination and avoiding duplication. In particular, ECDC intends to inform XXXX on the support provided to the nominated networks of national laboratories by the European Union Reference Laboratory (EURL) network in terms of diagnosis, detection, identification and characterisation of infectious agents. In particular, XXXX intends to inform ECDC of the studies to be carried out by laboratories supported by XXXX, on the characterisation of emerging pathogens, and of their results. Where relevant, XXXX intends to consult with ECDC on the design and outcome of these studies. XXXX informs ECDC of the result of the epidemic intelligence gathered at global level through HERA laboratory initiatives.
LABORATORY ACTIVITIES. Laboratory activities are an integral part of the program. The tools, test equipment, materials, processes and safety practices used in these laboratory activities are similar to those used in industry. The activities provide instruction in maintenance techniques, computer aided drafting/design skills, technical communications, maintenance and operation of various industrial components, quality control and testing, material handling protocols, and proper usage of tools and instrumentation.
LABORATORY ACTIVITIES. I understand that during the laboratory experiences I will role-play as both an EMT/PS and a patient. I will be expected to have physical contact with other students while learning various skills and have skills practiced on myself. Examples of such laboratory experiences may include patient exams, splinting, lifting and moving, assessment of vitals, venipuncture, etc. During the laboratory experiences I agree to follow theories and principles of safe, legal and ethical practice. I agree that I will not knowingly place myself, patients, preceptors or others in an unsafe situation based on my physical, mental, or emotional limitations. I have read the Physical Requirements for an EMT and noted any special requirements. I have read and agree to complete the physical exam and immunizations as required prior to patient contact.
