Augusta Health’s School of Clinical Laboratory Science receives accreditation


The School of Clinical Laboratory Science at Augusta Health has received a full seven-year accreditation from the National Accrediting Agency for Clinical Laboratory Sciences. Accreditation by the NAACLS is a year-long process that includes completion of a self-study document that details compliance with 22 national standards and a site visit by the agency.

NAACLS is the premier international agency for accreditation and approval of educational programs in the clinical laboratory sciences and related health professions. “We are pleased with our full seven year accreditation by the NAACLS because it validates our commitment to high standards and quality in both our clinical lab and our programs to educate our students. This accreditation is important to the school, the hospital, and to patients,” said Ellie Coggins, MLS, MSHA, program director.

Augusta Health’s School of Clinical Laboratory Science was first established in 1955 at King’s Daughters’ Hospital as the School of Medical Technology. The school is affiliated with seven colleges and universities. Students in the program spend a year at Augusta Health, in both classroom and clinical settings, learning all aspects of laboratory science.
