Located on the sixth floor of the Critical Care Center, the Clinical Laboratory offers comprehensive diagnostic and monitoring functions to UK Hospital physicians as well as to local and regional hospitals, clinics, and physicians.
Included in the Clinical Laboratory services are hematology, microbiology, chemistry, virology, toxicology and therapeutic drug monitoring. The lab space accommodates more than 250 specially-trained medical professionals who provide around-the-clock laboratory services using state-of-the-art equipment. Since time saving is a priority in critical care, Omni Architect’s design included the installation of a pneumatic tube system to connect departments to the Clinical Laboratory. This project was completed as a joint-venture with CMW, Inc., and in collaboration with HOK.
