Completed printed reports are returned to the wards and units on a daily basis. Results on routine inpatient
and out-patient samples are available on Ward Enquiry or OCM as soon as they are validated.
Unexpected or grossly abnormal results will, whenever possible, be telephoned to the requesting
doctor.
Results of emergency analyses may also be telephoned, but results reported in this way are a frequent
source of error, so please repeat the results back to the laboratory staff when they have been recorded.
Please do not telephone the laboratory for results unless you cannot find them in any other way.
Constant interruptions delay the flow of work.
