Description

<p>Medical technologists who took classes designated by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare and received certificates of completion were designated to collect some specimens. In conjunction with this, we hoped to expand the work of collecting specimens and conducting a rapid test for influenza during the influenza epidemic period, and explaining the points of caution about living for patients suffering from influenza. In addition, questionnaires were administered to doctors, nurses and clinical assistant clerks, and their responses were evaluated. As a result, 97% answered that this business expansion was good and highly evaluated. We improved the operation of outpatient clinics, which was complicated so far and established a new form of medical treatment by expanding our business. Our business expansion led to the shortening of the outpatient clinical waiting time and the establishment of good communication and trust with patients. Medical technologists collected specimens and made it possible to provide high-quality medical treatment.</p>
