The MLPAO has been actively raising awareness about the challenges facing medical laboratory professionals across Ontario. Recently, our CEO, Michelle Hoad, was featured in a CBC article discussing the urgent need for more in-lab preceptors and the impact of understaffing on patient care.
On CTV News, coverage focused on the growing shortage of medical laboratory technologists, highlighting the strain this places on the healthcare system.
Meanwhile, Michelle’s iHeart Radio interview shed light on the burnout and stress lab professionals are experiencing as they continue to deliver essential services under increasing pressure.
