Jameson Hospital Diagnostics
Receives Accreditation from College of American Pathologists

The Jameson Hospital Laboratory has been awarded an accreditation by the Commission on Laboratory Accreditation of the College of American Pathologists ( CAP ) based on the results of recent on-site inspections.  Jameson Hospital laboratories include the North Campus and South Campus Labs and Jameson Diagnostics.  Bienvenido S. Ong, MD, FCAP , Medical Director, was recognized and congratulated for the “excellence of the services being provided.” 

During the CAP accreditation process, CAP inspectors examine the records and quality control of procedures for the preceding two years.  Inspectors also examine the entire staff’s qualifications, the laboratory’s equipment, facilities, safety program and record, as well as the overall management of the laboratory.  The stringent inspection program is designed to specifically ensure the highest standards of care for the laboratory’s patients.  Jameson Hospital Laboratory is one of the more than 7,000 CAP -accredited laboratories nationwide.

The CAP Laboratory Accreditation Program, begun in the early 1960s, is recognized by the federal government as being equal to or more stringent than the government’s own inspection program.
