Episode 6: The Frontlines - Deanne Cianfagna and Mary Louise Petersen
Episode 6 marks our final episode of the series: we speak with Deanne Cianfagna and Mary Louise Petersen, two MLTs working on the front lines at Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre. Cianfagna and Petersen speak with us about the shortage: first warning signs, training under stress, automation and amalgamation, and impact for MLTs as individuals and professionals.
This season we are focusing on an issue which impacts all of us here in Ontario: an impending medical laboratory staffing crisis. We’ll hear from small laboratories in rural and remote areas, lab managers preparing for shifting workforces, advocacy groups approaching the province to address the crisis, medical laboratory professionals working on the ground, and many more stories from the shortage.
