BIOB1000 Introduction to the Profession of Biomedical Laboratory Sciences Course description

The course gives an introduction to the biomedical laboratory science profession, and will connect the biomedical medical science discipline to the fundamental values that are common to all health professions. A holistic view of people is a key element, as is respect for people’s integrity, autonomy and right of co-determination. The course covers basic knowledge about health professions and topics that form a common frame of reference for practising the various professions, for instance health legislation, communication and cooperation. Biomedical laboratory scientists’ professional practice will be elucidated with examples relating to ethics, duty of confidentiality and consent. The course also gives an introduction to the biomedical laboratory scientists’ work in the laboratory, blood sample collection, pre-analytical conditions and laboratory analyses’ role in the health service.
