Suspect a patient with a high-consequence infectious disease? Act fast: isolate immediately + use proper PPE to protect staff & patients. Ensure your team knows protocols and has access to the right equipment. NETEC PPE guide: ow.ly/cSAv50YKrcx #NETECNugget

Last week, NETEC hosted an in-person training in Nashville for @HCAHealthcare. 37 participants strengthened frontline readiness for HCIDs through scenario-based exercises focused on identification, isolation, coordination, and safety. Building resilience—one team at a time.

In HCID response, every step matters—especially between spaces. NETEC’s anteroom guidance helps facilities reduce risk with clear zoning, defined workflows, and safer transitions for PPE, staff, and supplies. Read the blog & explore the guidance: ow.ly/OI9c50YNsnO

We asked Andrew Hinesley (@MassGeneralNews) why laboratorians matter: “Although you don’t see us at the bedside…the work we do is critical in making important decisions.” Lab professionals power the decisions that save lives—particularly those involving special pathogens.
